A new second-order finite-difference form of three-dimensional momentum equations in the anelastic system is proposed. This conserves total kinetic energy in the three-dimensional motion as well as total enstrophy in the two-dimensional motion. It can be applied to the equations expressed by the curved orthogonal coordinate and to the variable-grid model in the Cartesian coordinate system.
The length of the manuscripts should not exceed 18,000 words for an Article and 4,500 words for Notes and Correspondence (approximately 60 and 15 double-spaced pages formatted using the JMSJ Word template, respectively). The manuscript should be double spaced in 12 point type, and all pages and lines must be numbered consecutively. The word limit does not include the title page, abstract, acknowledgements, references, tables, or figure captions.
