Summary:	"Certain truncation errors occur in numerical weather prediction models when a grid-point representation of the variables is used to simulate advection phenomena. The errors are manifest by excessive values of the variables and upstream propagation of small-scale noise. The mechanism causing these errors is studied by numerical experiments and harmonic analysis. Several ways to avoid or prevent errors of this kind are cited. Inclusion of a horizontal diffusion term in the scheme may be necessary to remove the errors completely."
