Abstract: 

This talk is a continuation of Part I. In numerical models of ocean circulation, it is widespread practice to split the fast and slow motions into separate subproblems that are solved by different techniques. The present talk will describe some issues related to conservation of momentum and will show the results of numerical computations that test two different ways to formulate the momentum equation in the context of a time splitting.
