Aim: Better understanding of atmospheric energy cycle
• Requirement: Consistence of the dynamical core and parameterizations for a correct description of energy transfer Scale-
invariant inertial range?
• Investigation of scale invariance up to now only for isotropic, incompressible, and three-dimensional turbulence Scale
invariance in the real atmosphere?

• Fast check for consistence: Scale invariance criterion (Schaefer-Rolffs et al., 2015)
• Each term in a given equation of motion can be investigated separately

Scale invariance of the model equations within a finite range of scales is preserved if the source function fulfills
Hence, a specific relation between the scaling factors exist in the regime of scale invariance.
