Abstract

In this paper we study the application of Newton-Krylov-Schwarz method to fully implicit, fully coupled solution of a global shallow water model. In particular, we are interested in developing a scalable parallel solver when the shallow water equations (SWEs) are discretized on the cubed-sphere grid using a second-order finite volume method.
