Greetings, 

I am a master’s student working on the shallow water model of the TS example 
'ex11.c' as part of my thesis. Therefore, I am working with DMForest for the 
implementation of adaptive grids. I have a question and an observation. 

I am trying to find relevant information about interpolation that takes place 
through the routine DMForestTransferVec. Perhaps it could be my inability to 
find it, but I am unable to locate the implementation of the routine 

(forest->transfervec)(dmIn,vecIn,dmOut,vecOut,useBCs,time). 

Any information on this particular routine is highly appreciated.

Furthermore, I have developed a well balanced Riemann Solver that includes 
topography in the model. In the process of testing both the non-adaptive and 
adaptive version, I found that my results differed when I changed the type of 
DM. For instance, when I run a scenario in a fixed, non-adaptive grid  with a 
DM of type 'P4est', I find that the well balanced nature is lost due to small 
perturbations all across the domain. However, this does not occur when I use a 
DM of type ‘plex’. Is there a radical change in the routines between the two 
DM’s? This is not as much of a question as it is an observation. 

Thank you for all of your suggestions! 

Regards, 

Mukkund
