In meteorology and climatology , global numerical models of atmospheric flow are of increasing interest which employ grids that are based on an icosahedron -LRB- refined by triangulation -RRB- instead of the more commonly used longitude/latitude grid .

In meteorology and climatology , global numerical models of atmospheric flow are of increasing interest which use grids that are based on an icosahedron -LRB- NUMBER@1 sides , refined by triangulation -RRB- instead of the more commonly used longitude/latitude grid .
