Unbalanced frontogenesis with constant potential vorticity

The numerical model of Williams et al. (1992) is used to study frontogenesis from unbalanced initial conditions. The dependent variables are assumed to be independent of y. The hydrostatic Boussinesq primitive equations are used with no diffusion of heat or momentum. The model is bounded at the top...
