Abstract: An energy and angular-momentum conserving vertical finite-difference scheme is introduced for a general terrain-following vertical coordinate which is a function of pressure and its surface value. A corresponding semi-implicit ...

Abstract: The stability of the semi-implicit method of time integration of the primitive equations is examined when the actual temperature deviates from the reference profile about which the implicitly treated gravity wave terms are ...
