Popis: A time stepping procedure is proposed for a coupled fluid model motivated by the dynamic core of the atmosphere-ocean system. The method exploits properties of the atmosphere-ocean system to obtain efficiency. The momentum equations for the two fluids may be solved in parallel with different time step sizes. Stability is maintained with large time steps via a balanced two-way passing of momentum flux. Numerical tests are provided that demonstrate the efficiency of the method.
