A new method is developed to solve the condensation equation as it relates to Air Quality Models using both semi-Lagrangian
and Lagrangian fluxes to increase resolution and perform accurately under stringent conditions that occur in the atmosphere.
The new method, Partitioned Flux Integrated Semi-Lagrangian Method (PFISLM), can be used with lower-order interpolators and
they produce highly accurate results. PFISLM is positive definite, peak retentive, mass conservative, and suppresses oscillations.
Research indicates the differences between PFISLM and other traditional flux integrated semi-Lagrangian methods are significant
when solving the aerosol condensation/evaporation equation. PFISLM is created to handle specific difficulties associated with
the time and space discretization of the aerosol operator in air quality models.
