Default truncation values for "RESOL=AUTO" (Automatic Truncation) have also changed. MIR uses a formula to truncate the spectral series to correspond to the equivalent linear Gaussian grid, replacing the fixed table used in EMOSLIB. Transformations to regular latitude-longitude grids then use an intermediate full (regular) Gaussian grid.

| Path | Keywords | MIR Behaviour | EMOSLIB Behaviour |
|---|---|---|---|
| Red | RESOL=AUTO, GRID=1.0/1.0 | Default Behaviour. Transformation from T1279 to an intermediate F90 full (regular) Gaussian grid (with an automatic truncation to T179) followed by a grid-to-grid interpolation from the F90 grid to 1.0/1.0. | Default Behaviour. Direct transformation from T1279 to 1.0/1.0, with an automatic truncation to T213 according to EMOSLIB's truncation table |
| Green | RESOL=AV, GRID=1.0/1.0 | Transformation from T1279 to the corresponding intermediate reduced octahedral Gaussian O1280, before going to 1.0/1.0. | Direct transformation from T1279 to 1.0/1.0, with no truncation. |
| Blue | RESOL=179, GRID=F90, and then GRID=1.0/1.0 TODO: use the new keyword once it has been agreed | Transformation from T1279 to the F90 full (regular) Gaussian grid (with an automatic truncation to T179) followed by a grid-to-grid interpolation from the F90 grid to 1.0/1.0. | Same as in MIR, but a separate MARS request is needed for each of the two steps. |
