Abstract
    A method is described for modifying the velocity field in geophysical fluid models so as to enforce the continuity equation. A corrective mass flux is introduced, which derives from a scalar potential. The latter is the solution of a Poisson problem which is formulated in such a way that a suitable norm of the corrective velocity be minimum. It is seen that a generalised vertical coordinate may be used. Finally, an elementary, one-dimensional illustration of the functioning of the method suggested is provided.
