Description:"In an effort to reduce the large amount of computing time necessary to carry out an integration of primitive-equation numerical weather prediction models, an effort was initiated at NMC in the summer of 1969 to examine the feasibility of employing a semi-implicit integration method with such models. At that time, Soviet scientists under the direction of Marchuk had successfully applied this technique to a primitive-equation model (9). Robert, in Canada, had adapted this idea for the integration of a spectral model (12), and had begun work on a finite-difference primitive-equation barotropic model. The latter application turned out to be successful also, and was subsequently documented in the literature (Kwizak and Robert, 8)"--Introduction
