Abstract
The work of CHARNEY (1949 a, 1949 b and 1950) and his collaborators on the numerical integration of the equations of meteorological dynamics is of considerable theoretical interest and of potential practical importance. In view of the promising nature of Charney's earlier results an independent examination has been carried out in the Forecasting Research Division of the Meteorological Office at Dunstable. The purpose of the present note is to report the results of some calculations performed dong the lines of those of CHARNEY (1949 a, 1949 b) and also to indicate the results of experience which we have gained from some small-scale computational experiments with a baroclinic model used by SUTCLIFFE (1947) and now being studied by CHARNEY (1950).
