Note: 1) Resolution in radial direction (the number outside of the parentheses)
         for our calculations is refined near the top and bottom boundaries. 
      2) Resolution for comparison cases is 48x(6x48x48) for Stemmer et al. {2006},
         102x(102x204) for Yoshida and Kageyama {2004}, where the number outside
         parentheses represents the resolution in radial direction. 
      3) Ratcliff et al {1996} used different resolution for cubic and tetrahedral 
         symmetry cases, as they considered the symmetry of these cases and did not 
         compute them in a full sphere. For cubic symmetry cases, the equivalent 
         resolution is 32, 64, and 128 cells in radial, co-latitude and longitude 
         directions, respectively, and these numbers are 32, 32, and 64 for the
         tetrahedral cases.
