We analyze discontinuous Galerkin methods using upwind-biased numerical fluxes for time-dependent linear conservation laws. In one dimension, optimal a priori error estimates of order $k+1$ are obtained for the semidiscrete scheme when piecewise polynomials of degree at most $k$ $(k \ge 0)$ are used. Our analysis is valid for arbitrary nonuniform regular meshes and for both periodic boundary conditions and for initial-boundary value problems. We extend the analysis to the multidimensional case on Cartesian meshes when piecewise tensor product polynomials are used, and to the fully discrete scheme with explicit Runge--Kutta time discretization. Numerical experiments are shown to demonstrate the theoretical results.
