Spatial discretization schemes commonly used in global meteorological applications are currently limited to spectral methods or low-order finite-difference/finiteelement methods. The spectral transform method, which yields high-order approximations, requires Legendre transforms, which have a computa
The shallow water equations describe large scale horizontal phenomena of the global atmospheric motion to good approximation. Thus they provide a widely accepted primary test for numerical methods for global atmospheric modelling before proceeding to complete 3D baroclinic models [7]. They are progn
Quadratic spline collocation methods are formulated for the numerical solution of the Helmholtz equation in the unit square subject to non-homogeneous Dirichlet, Neumann and mixed boundary conditions, and also periodic boundary conditions. The methods are constructed so that they are: (a) of optimal
