Introduction • Primitive equations without approximation contains high- frequency sound waves. These waves impose a severe restriction on the size of time step in order to produce stable integrations. The most common practice consists of using approximations that eliminate sound waves from the equations. Large-scale models use the hydrostatic approximation. Convection models generally use the anelastic approximation. • Inthisstudy,wecombinenon-iterationdimensional-splitsemi-Largrangian(NDSL)advectionwithRiemanninvariantcharacteristic equation (RICE)tosolveacousticwaveexplicitly.WetestNDSL-RICEmethodinanon-hydrostaticsystem.

Conclusion • A non-hydrostatic equation system is used to test NDSL-RICE method to resolve acoustic waves explicitly. Since NDSL is unconditionally stable for advection, theoretically we can use as large a time step as possible; however, RICE in two-dimensions shows ill-solution with large time step. • Thus, the preliminary results show that no limitation of time step should be used in one-dimensional tests but there are some limitations in two dimensional tests due to the nature of Riemann solver. Furthermore, the long distance advection due to large acoustic speeds require us to consider entire trajectory as compared to central mean value.
Future work • Applied cascade interpolation with NDSL-RICE on warm bubble test • Improve processes for forcing term
