An evaluation of the behaviour of planetary waves in an atmospheric model based on spherical harmonics.

The grid point method commonly used in numerical calculations presents serious problems in experiments that require a global coverage of the meteorological variables. The shape of the earth and the form taken by the meteorological equations in a system where longitude and latitude are the basic coordinates, suggest the use of spherical harmonics for the horizontal specification of the variables.
