Overview
The PCM vertical coordinate, also called "model levels" is rather specific in the PCM and typically consists of hybrid "sigma-pressure" coordinates.
sigma coordinates
hybrid sima pressure coordinates
in practice
Information about the vertical coordinate is only partially stored in the PCM dynamics start files
