Maps of the pressure scaling factor of the planetary boundary condition. The upper panel shows the pressure scaling factor, fpres along the planet surface, in the case where the value at the antistellar point (φp = 180°, θp = 90°) is 10% of the value at the substellar point (φp = 0,θp = 90°). The lower panel shows a slice through the planet, in which the observer is located in the –x and the star in the + x-direction. For models with a lower degree of anisotropy, a similar distribution is used, only with a different minimum value on the night side .
