-Vertical discretisation used depends on both how the bottom topography is represented and 
-whether the free surface is linear or not. Full step or partial step $z$-coordinate or 
-$s$- (terrain-following) coordinate is used with linear free surface (level position are then

-formulation (\textit{z*} or \textit{s*}) is used (the level position then vary in time as a 
-function of the sea surface heigh). The following two chapters (\ref{TRA} and \ref{DYN}) 
-describe the discretisation of the prognostic equations for the active tracers and the 
-momentum. Explicit, split-explicit and filtered free surface formulations are implemented.
