Abstract

All models that are utilized in atmospheric science are formulated based on fundamental physical principles, such as conservation of mass, conservation of momentum, and conservation of energy. These basic physical principles embodied in the atmospheric models are expressed mathematically as a coupled system of nonlinear partial differential equations. As these mathematical equations are complex and cannot be solved analytically, one has to resort to numerical methods to solve them. Numerical methods approximate a continuous model (system of partial differential equations) to a discrete model (system of difference equations). The process of approximating a continuous model to a discrete model by employing a numerical method is called “numerical discretization.”
