On discontinuous Galerkin approach for atmospheric flow in the mesoscale with and without moisture

We present and discuss discontinuous Galerkin (DG) schemes for dry and moist atmospheric flows in the mesoscale. We derive terrain-following coordinates on the sphere in strong-conservation form, which makes it possible to perform the computation on a Cartesian grid and yet conserves the momentum de...
