Abstract: Twelve and 24-hr 500-mb forecasts have been made using a hemispheric dependent, limited-area, fine-mesh prediction model. The model is barotropic and makes use of the primitive equations. Boundary conditions are obtained ...

Abstract: The Galerkin method is applied to a pair of linear and then nonlinear primitive (wave) equations. This results in a system of ordinary differential equations. Procedures are included for generating the coefficient matrices ...
