In this paper we consider Galerkin-finite element methods that approximate the solutions of initial-boundary-value problems in one space dimension for parabolic and Schrödinger evolution equations with dynamical boundary conditions. Error estimates of optimal rates of convergence in $L^2$ and $H^1$ are proved for the associated semidiscrete and fully discrete Crank-Nicolson-Galerkin approximations. The problem involving the Schrödinger equation is motivated by considering the standard “parabolic” (paraxial) approximation to the Helmholtz equation, used in underwater acoustics to model long-range sound propagation in the sea, in the specific case of a domain with a rigid bottom of variable topography. This model is contrasted with alternative ones that avoid the dynamical bottom boundary condition and are shown to yield qualitatively better approximations. In the (real) parabolic case, numerical approximations are considered for dynamical boundary conditions of reactive and dissipative type.
