      We develop a new splitting procedure by using nonlinear primitive equations. We analyze the stability of this splitting when applied to a linearized flow in a two-layer fluid with one horizontal dimension and a flat lower boundary. Then we extend this analysis to the case of two horizontal dimensions in a rotating reference frame with constant Coriolis parameter. Some numerical tests of the new splitting are described.
