Ah, well, I did stop studying GCMs about 20 years ago so perhaps I should shut up and let other people post. I appreciate the detail in your explanation here, and I wouldn’t mind a link to papers explaining the current state of the art.

I'm not sure I can point you to a single reference, but a good starting point would be the UK Met Office's "Unified Model", which provides a framework for configuring model simulations that scale from sub-mesoscale rapid refresh (e.g. the UKV system) to traditional global modeling (e.g. MOGREPS) and beyond into climate (latest versions of the Hadley Centre models, which I think the current production version is HadGEM3).
