Abstract We describe a finite volume semi‐Lagrangian method for the numerical approximation of conservation laws arising in fluid‐dynamic applications. A discrete conservation relation is satisfied by using conservative interpolation for the material (or property) being conserved. The method was developed with a view to application in climate prediction. © 1995 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
