We discuss how to combine a front tracking method with dimensional splitting to solve systems of conservation laws numerically in two space dimensions. In addition we present an adaptive grid refinement strategy. The method is unconditionally stable and allows for moderately high CFL numbers (typica

Semi-Lagrangian methods are now perhaps the most widely researched algorithms in connection with atmospheric flow simulation codes. In order to investigate their applicability to hydraulic problems, cubic Hermite polynomials are used as the interpolant technique. The main advantage of such an approa

We present a high-order discontinuous Galerkin method for the solution of the shallow water equations on the sphere. To overcome well-known problems with polar singularities, we consider the shallow water equations in Cartesian coordinates, augmented with a Lagrange multiplier to ensure that fluid p
