Abstract

A method is presented for changing over from a single-layer shallow-water model to a multilayer model with hydrostatic pressure profile and, then, to a multilayer model with nonhydrostatic pressure profile. The method does not require complex procedures for solving the discrete Poisson’s equation and features high computation efficiency. The results of validating the algorithm against experimental data critical for the numerical dissipation of the numerical scheme are presented. Examples are considered.
