The two approaches (the hydrodynnmical-numerical and the harmonic methods) to the solution of the long wave equations are compared, enabling an analysis of the limits imposed by time stepping. The minimum time scale of motions, which may be modelled by the time stepping scheme, is determined from the stability condition derived for the harmonic method.
