Query: Multidimensional method-of-lines transport for atmospheric flows over
  steep terrain using arbitrary meshes   Including terrain in atmospheric models gives rise to mesh distortions near
the lower boundary that can degrade accuracy and challenge the stability of
transport schemes. Multidimensional transport schemes avoid splitting errors on
distorted, arbitrary meshes, and method-of-lines schemes have low computational
cost because they perform reconstructions at fixed points.
  This paper presents a multidimensional method-of-lines finite volume
transport scheme, "cubicFit", which is designed to be numerically stable on
arbitrary meshes. Stability conditions derived from a von Neumann stability
analysis are imposed during model initialisation to obtain stability and
improve accuracy in distorted regions of the mesh, and near steeply-sloping
lower boundaries. Reconstruction calculations depend upon the mesh only,
needing just one vector multiply per face per time-stage irrespective of the
velocity field.
  The cubicFit scheme is evaluated using three, idealised numerical tests. The
first is a variant of a standard horizontal transport test on severely
distorted terrain-following meshes. The second is a new test case that assesses
accuracy near the ground by transporting a tracer at the lower boundary over
steep terrain on terrain-following meshes, cut-cell meshes, and new,
slanted-cell meshes that do not suffer from severe time-step constraints
associated with cut cells. The third, standard test deforms a tracer in a
vortical flow on hexagonal-icosahedral meshes and cubed-sphere meshes. In all
tests, cubicFit is stable and largely insensitive to mesh distortions, and
cubicFit results are more accurate than those obtained using a multidimensional
linear upwind transport scheme. The cubicFit scheme is second-order convergent
regardless of mesh distortions.
