Numerical models that combine weather forecasting and atmospheric chemistry are here
referred to as chemical weather forecasting models. Eighteen operational chemical weather …

Abstract All atmospheric General Circulation Models (GCMs) need some form of dissipation,
either explicitly specified or inherent in the chosen numerical schemes for the spatial and …

The performance of a multidimensional finite-volume transport scheme is evaluated on the
cubed-sphere geometry. Advection tests with prescribed winds are used to evaluate a …

A deterministic initial‐value test case for dry dynamical cores of atmospheric general‐
circulation models is presented that assesses the evolution of an idealized baroclinic wave …

A conservative multi-tracer transport algorithm on the cubed-sphere based on the semi-
Lagrangian approach (CSLAM) has been developed. The scheme relies on backward …

A discontinuous Galerkin shallow water model on the cubed sphere is developed, thereby
extending the transport scheme developed by Nair et al. The continuous flux form nonlinear …

Numerical weather prediction (NWP) is in a period of transition. As resolutions increase,
global models are moving towards fully nonhydrostatic dynamical cores, with the local and …

The resolutions of interests in atmospheric simulations require prohibitively large
computational resources. Adaptive mesh refinement (AMR) tries to mitigate this problem by …

A Comparison of Two Shallow-Water Models with Nonconforming Adaptive Grids in:
Monthly Weather Review Volume 136 Issue 6 (2008) Jump to Content Jump to Main …

We present SphericalNR, a new framework for the publicly available Einstein Toolkit that
numerically solves the Einstein field equations coupled to the equations of general …
