Abstract: Five filtered models, including two that are intermediate between the balanced and the primitive equations, are studied using actual weather data. The iterative method of solution works well in most cases. The two more ...

Abstract: A well known method for the solution of the balance equation is analyzed. It is shown that the method is convergent, provided that under-relaxation is used and that the approximate solutions satisfy the ellipticity criteria ...

Abstract: A convective parameterization that mimics the theoretical effects of slantwise convection initiated by the release of conditional symmetric instability (CSI) is tested in a three-dimensional primitive equation model. Great ...
