    Notes: A review of the analytical and numerical background of Fourier wave theory establishes the commonality of existing formulations and identifies a number of analytical and numerical assumptions that are unnecessary. Some formulations in particular lack flexibility in excluding the possibility of Stokes' second definition of phase speed. A generalized formulation is introduced for comparative purposes and it is shown that published solutions differ only in the approach to the limit wave. Detailed consideration of truncation order confirms that it is the crucial parameter, especially at extreme wave heights. All formulations considered are shown to provide acceptable solutions for small to moderately extreme waves.

    Notes: Rational strategies are considered for the specification of the intermediate boundary condition at an inflow boundary where process splitting (fractional steps) is adopted in solving the advection-dispersion equation. Three lowest-order methods are initially considered and evaluation is based on comparisons with an analytical solution. For flow and dispersion parameter ranges typical of rivers and estuaries, the given boundary condition for the complete advection-dispersion equation at the end of the complete time step provides a satisfactory estimate of the intermediate boundary value. This was further confirmed by the development and evaluation of two higher-order methods. These required non-centred discrete approximations for spatial derivatives, which offset any special advantages from the higher truncation error order.
