文摘A set of equations was derived for a non-Boussinesq ocean model in thispaper. A new time-splitting scheme was introduced which incorporates the 4th-order Runge-Kuttaexplicit scheme of low-frequency mode and an implicit scheme of high-frequency mode. With thismodel, potential temperature, salinity fields and sea surface height were calculated simultaneouslysuch that the numerical error of extrapolation of density field from the current time level to thenext one could be reduced while using the equation of mass conservation to determine sea surfaceheight. The non-Bouss-inesq effect on the density field and sea surface height was estimated bynumerical experiments in the final part of this paper.
