Here we compare an expansion truncated at second order (CE2) to statistics accumulated by direct numerical simulations (DNS). We show that, for jets near equilibrium, CE2 is capable of reproducing the jet structure (although some differences remain in the second cumulant). However as the degree of departure from equilibrium is increased (as measured by the zonostrophy parameter) the jets meander more and CE2 becomes less accurate.
