\subsection{Time-stepping of tracers: ABII} |
| 17 |
|
|
| 18 |
|
The default advection scheme is the centered second order method which |
| 19 |
|
requires a second order or quasi-second order time-stepping scheme to |
| 20 |
|
be stable. Historically this has been the quasi-second order |
| 21 |
|
Adams-Bashforth method (ABII) and applied to all terms. For an |
| 22 |
|
arbitrary tracer, $\tau$, the forced advection-diffusion equation |
| 23 |
|
reads: |
| 24 |
|
\begin{equation} |
| 25 |
|
\partial_t \tau + G_{adv}^\tau = G_{diff}^\tau + G_{forc}^\tau |
| 26 |
|
\end{equation} |
| 27 |
|
where $G_{adv}^\tau$, $G_{diff}^\tau$ and $G_{forc}^\tau$ are the |
| 28 |
|
tendencies due to advection, diffusion and forcing, respectively, |
| 29 |
|
namely: |
| 30 |
|
\begin{eqnarray} |
| 31 |
|
G_{adv}^\tau & = & \partial_x u \tau + \partial_y v \tau + \partial_r w \tau |
| 32 |
|
- \tau \nabla \cdot {\bf v} \\ |
| 33 |
|
G_{diff}^\tau & = & \nabla \cdot {\bf K} \nabla \tau |
| 34 |
|
\end{eqnarray} |
| 35 |
|
and the forcing can be some arbitrary function of state, time and |
| 36 |
|
space. |
| 37 |
|
|
| 38 |
|
The term, $\tau \nabla \cdot {\bf v}$, is required to retain local |
| 39 |
|
conservation in conjunction with the linear implicit free-surface. It |
| 40 |
|
only affects the surface layer since the flow is non-divergent |
| 41 |
|
everywhere else. This term is therefore referred to as the surface |
| 42 |
|
correction term. Global conservation is not possible using the |
| 43 |
|
flux-form (as here) and a linearized free-surface |
| 44 |
|
(\cite{Griffies00,Campin02}). |
| 45 |
|
|
| 46 |
|
The continuity equation can be recovered by setting |
| 47 |
|
$G_{diff}=G_{forc}=0$ and $\tau=1$. |
| 48 |
|
|
| 49 |
|
The driver routine that calls the routines to calculate tendancies are |
| 50 |
|
{\em S/R CALC\_GT} and {\em S/R CALC\_GS} for temperature and salt |
| 51 |
|
(moisture), respectively. These in turn call a generic advection |
| 52 |
|
diffusion routine {\em S/R GAD\_CALC\_RHS} that is called with the |
| 53 |
|
flow field and relevent tracer as arguments and returns the collective |
| 54 |
|
tendancy due to advection and diffusion. Forcing is add subsequently |
| 55 |
|
in {\em S/R CALC\_GT} or {\em S/R CALC\_GS} to the same tendancy |
| 56 |
|
array. |

The space and time discretizations are treated seperately (method of |

| 77 |
|
\right) |
| 78 |
|
\end{equation} |
| 79 |
|
where $G^{(n)} = G_{adv}^\tau + G_{diff}^\tau + G_{src}^\tau$ at time |
| 80 |
|
step $n$. |
| 81 |
|
|
| 82 |
|
Strictly speaking the ABII scheme should be applied only to the |
| 83 |
|
advection terms. However, this scheme is only used in conjuction with |
| 84 |
|
the standard second, third and fourth order advection |
| 85 |
|
schemes. Selection of any other advection scheme disables |
| 86 |
|
Adams-Bashforth for tracers so that explicit diffusion and forcing use |

\section{Linear advection schemes} |
| 140 |
|
|
| 141 |
|
The advection schemes known as centered second order, centered fourth |
| 142 |
|
order, first order upwind and upwind biased third order are known as |
| 143 |
|
linear advection schemes because the coefficient for interpolation of |
| 144 |
|
the advected tracer are linear and a function only of the flow, not |
| 145 |
|
the tracer field it self. We discuss these first since they are most |
| 146 |
|
commonly used in the field and most familiar. |

|
second order advection is notoriously noisey and must be used in |
| 154 |
|
conjuction with some finite amount of diffusion to produce a sensible |
| 155 |
|
solution. |
| 156 |
|
|
| 157 |
|
The advection operator is discretized: |
| 158 |
\begin{equation} |
\begin{equation} |
| 159 |
{\cal A}_c \Delta r_f h_c \partial_\theta |
{\cal A}_c \Delta r_f h_c G_{adv}^\tau = |
| 160 |
+ \delta_i F_x |
\delta_i F_x + \delta_j F_y + \delta_k F_r |
|
+ \delta_j F_y |
|
|
+ \delta_k F_r |
|
|
= {\cal A}_c \Delta r_f h_c {\cal S}_\theta |
|
|
+ \theta {\cal A}_c \delta_k (P-E)_{r=0} |
|
| 161 |
\end{equation} |
\end{equation} |
| 162 |
where the area integrated fluxes are given by: |
where the area integrated fluxes are given by: |
| 163 |
\begin{eqnarray} |
\begin{eqnarray} |
| 164 |
F_x & = & U \overline{ \theta }^i |
F_x & = & U \overline{ \tau }^i \\ |
| 165 |
- \kappa_h \frac{\Delta y_g \Delta r_f h_w}{\Delta x_c} \delta_i \theta \\ |
F_y & = & V \overline{ \tau }^j \\ |
| 166 |
F_y & = & V \overline{ \theta }^j |
F_r & = & W \overline{ \tau }^k |
|
- \kappa_h \frac{\Delta x_g \Delta r_f h_s}{\Delta y_c} \delta_j \theta \\ |
|
|
F_r & = & W \overline{ \theta }^k |
|
|
- \kappa_v \frac{\Delta x_g \Delta y_g}{\Delta r_c} \delta_k \theta |
|
| 167 |
\end{eqnarray} |
\end{eqnarray} |
| 168 |

V & = & \Delta x_g \Delta r_f h_s v \\ |

W & = & {\cal A}_c w |

\end{eqnarray} |
\end{eqnarray} |
|
${\cal S}$ represents the ``parameterized'' SGS processes and physics |
|
|
and sources associated with the tracer. For instance, potential |
|
|
temperature equation in the ocean has is forced by surface and |
|
|
partially penetrating heat fluxes: |
|
|
\begin{equation} |
|
|
{\cal A}_c \Delta r_f h_c {\cal S}_\theta = \frac{1}{c_p \rho_o} \delta_k {\cal A}_c {\cal Q} |
|
|
\end{equation} |
|
|
while the salt equation has no real sources, ${\cal S}=0$, which |
|
|
leaves just the $P-E$ term. |
|
|
|
|
|
The continuity equation can be recovered by setting ${\cal Q}=0$, $\kappa_h = \kappa_v = 0$ and |
|
|
$\theta=1$. The term $\theta (P-E)_{r=0}$ is required to retain local |
|
|
conservation of $\theta$. Global conservation is not possible using |
|
|
the flux-form (as here) and a linearized free-surface |
|
|
(\cite{Griffies00,Campin02}). |
|
| 177 |
|
|
| 178 |
|
For non-divergent flow, this discretization can be shown to conserve |
| 179 |
|
the tracer both locally and globally and to globally conserve tracer |
| 180 |
|
variance, $\tau^2$. The proof is given in \cite{Adcroft95,Adcroft97}. |

\subsection{Third order upwind bias advection} |
| 211 |
|
|
| 212 |
|
Upwind biased third order advection offers a relatively good |
| 213 |
|
compromise between accuracy and smoothness. It is not a ``positive'' |
| 214 |
|
scheme meaning false extrema are permitted but the amplitude of such |
| 215 |
|
are significantly reduced over the centered second order method. |
| 216 |
|
|
| 217 |
|
The third order upwind fluxes are discretized: |
| 218 |
|
\begin{eqnarray} |
| 219 |
|
F_x & = & U \overline{\tau - \frac{1}{6} \delta_{ii} \tau}^i |
| 220 |
|
+ \frac{1}{2} |U| \delta_i \frac{1}{6} \delta_{ii} \tau \\ |
| 221 |
|
F_y & = & V \overline{\tau - \frac{1}{6} \delta_{ii} \tau}^j |
| 222 |
|
+ \frac{1}{2} |V| \delta_j \frac{1}{6} \delta_{jj} \tau \\ |
| 223 |
|
F_r & = & W \overline{\tau - \frac{1}{6} \delta_{ii} \tau}^k |
| 224 |
|
+ \frac{1}{2} |W| \delta_k \frac{1}{6} \delta_{kk} \tau |
| 225 |
|
\end{eqnarray} |
| 226 |
|
|
| 227 |
|
At boundaries, $\delta_{\hat{n}} \tau$ is set to zero allowing |
| 228 |
|
$\delta_{nn}$ to be evaluated. We are currently examing the accuracy |
| 229 |
|
of this boundary condition and the effect on the solution. |
| 230 |
|
|
| 231 |
|
|
| 232 |
|
\subsection{Centered fourth order advection} |
| 233 |
|
|
| 234 |
|
Centered fourth order advection is formally the most accurate scheme |
| 235 |
|
we have implemented and can be used to great effect in high resolution |
| 236 |
|
simultation where dynamical scales are well resolved. However, the |
| 237 |
|
scheme is noisey like the centered second order method and so must be |
| 238 |
|
used with some finite amount of diffusion. Bi-harmonic is recommended |
| 239 |
|
since it is more scale selective and less likely to diffuse away the |
| 240 |
|
well resolved gradient the fourth order scheme worked so hard to |
| 241 |
|
create. |
| 242 |
|
|
| 243 |
|
The centered fourth order fluxes are discretized: |
| 244 |
|
\begin{eqnarray} |
| 245 |
|
F_x & = & U \overline{\tau - \frac{1}{6} \delta_{ii} \tau}^i \\ |
| 246 |
|
F_y & = & V \overline{\tau - \frac{1}{6} \delta_{ii} \tau}^j \\ |
| 247 |
|
F_r & = & W \overline{\tau - \frac{1}{6} \delta_{ii} \tau}^k |
| 248 |
|
\end{eqnarray} |
| 249 |
|
|
| 250 |
|
As for the third order scheme, the best discretization near boundaries |
| 251 |
|
is under investigation but currenlty $\delta_i \tau=0$ on a boundary. |
| 252 |
|
|
| 253 |
|
\subsection{First order upwind advection} |
| 254 |
|
|
| 255 |
|
Although the upwind scheme is the underlying scheme for the robust or |
| 256 |
|
non-linear methods given later, we haven't actually supplied this |
| 257 |
|
method for general use. It would be very diffusive and it is unlikely |
| 258 |
|
that it could ever produce more useful results than the positive |
| 259 |
|
higher order schemes. |
| 260 |
|
|
| 261 |
|
Upwind bias is introduced into many schemes using the {\em abs} |
| 262 |
|
function and is allows the first order upwind flux to be written: |
| 263 |
|
\begin{eqnarray} |
| 264 |
|
F_x & = & U \overline{ \tau }^i - \frac{1}{2} |U| \delta_i \tau \\ |
| 265 |
|
F_y & = & V \overline{ \tau }^j - \frac{1}{2} |V| \delta_j \tau \\ |
| 266 |
|
F_r & = & W \overline{ \tau }^k - \frac{1}{2} |W| \delta_k \tau |
| 267 |
|
\end{eqnarray} |
| 268 |
|
|
| 269 |
|
If for some reason, the above method is required, then the second |
| 270 |
|
order flux limiter scheme described later reduces to the above scheme |
| 271 |
|
if the limiter is set to zero. |
| 272 |
|
|
| 273 |
|
|
| 274 |
|
\section{Non-linear advection schemes} |
| 275 |
|
|
| 276 |
|
Non-linear advection schemes invoke non-linear interpolation and are |
| 277 |
|
widely used in computational fluid dynamics (non-linear does not refer |
| 278 |
|
to the non-linearity of the advection operator). The flux limited |
| 279 |
|
advection schemes belong to the class of finite volume methods which |
| 280 |
|
neatly ties into the spatial discretization of the model. |
| 281 |
|
|
| 282 |
|
When employing the flux limited schemes, first order upwind or |
| 283 |
|
direct-space-time method the time-stepping is switched to forward in |
| 284 |
|
time. |
| 285 |
|
|
| 286 |
|
\subsection{Second order flux limiters} |
| 287 |
|
|
| 288 |
|
The second order flux limiter method can be cast in several ways but |
| 289 |
|
is generally expressed in terms of other flux approximations. For |
| 290 |
|
example, in terms of a first order upwind flux and second order |
| 291 |
|
Lax-Wendroff flux, the limited flux is given as: |
| 292 |
|
\begin{equation} |
| 293 |
|
F = F_1 + \psi(r) F_{LW} |
| 294 |
|
\end{equation} |
| 295 |
|
where $\psi(r)$ is the limiter function, |
| 296 |
|
\begin{equation} |
| 297 |
|
F_1 = u \overline{\tau}^i - \frac{1}{2} |u| \delta_i \tau |
| 298 |
|
\end{equation} |
| 299 |
|
is the upwind flux, |
| 300 |
|
\begin{equation} |
| 301 |
|
F_{LW} = F_1 + \frac{|u|}{2} (1-c) \delta_i \tau |
| 302 |
|
\end{equation} |
| 303 |
|
is the Lax-Wendroff flux and $c = \frac{u \Delta t}{\Delta x}$ is the |
| 304 |
|
Courant (CFL) number. |
| 305 |
|
|
| 306 |
|
The limiter function, $\psi(r)$, takes the slope ratio |
| 307 |
|
\begin{eqnarray} |
| 308 |
|
r = \frac{ \tau_{i-1} - \tau_{i-2} }{ \tau_{i} - \tau_{i-1} } & \forall & u > 0 |
| 309 |
|
\\ |
| 310 |
|
r = \frac{ \tau_{i+1} - \tau_{i} }{ \tau_{i} - \tau_{i-1} } & \forall & u < 0 |
| 311 |
|
\end{eqnarray} |
| 312 |
|
as it's argument. There are many choices of limiter function but we |
| 313 |
|
only provide the Superbee limiter \cite{Roe85}: |
| 314 |
|
\begin{equation} |
| 315 |
|
\psi(r) = \max[0,\min[1,2r],\min[2,r]] |
| 316 |
|
\end{equation} |
| 317 |
|
|
| 318 |
|

\subsection{Third order direct space time} |
| 320 |
|
|
| 321 |

The direct-space-time method deals with space and time discretization |
| 322 |
|
together (other methods that treat space and time seperately are known |
| 323 |
|
collectively as the ``Method of Lines''). The Lax-Wendroff scheme |
| 324 |
|
falls into this category; it adds sufficient diffusion to a second |
| 325 |
|
order flux that the forward-in-time method is stable. The upwind |
| 326 |
|
biased third order DST scheme is: |
| 327 |
|
\begin{eqnarray} |
| 328 |
|
F = u \left( \tau_{i-1} |
| 329 |
|
+ d_0 (\tau_{i}-\tau_{i-1}) + d_1 (\tau_{i-1}-\tau_{i-2}) \right) |
| 330 |
|
& \forall & u > 0 \\ |
| 331 |
|
F = u \left( \tau_{i} |
| 332 |
|
- d_0 (\tau_{i}-\tau_{i-1}) - d_1 (\tau_{i+1}-\tau_{i}) \right) |
| 333 |
|
& \forall & u < 0 |
| 334 |
|
\end{eqnarray} |
| 335 |
|
where |
| 336 |
|
\begin{eqnarray} |
| 337 |
|
d_1 & = & \frac{1}{6} ( 2 - |c| ) ( 1 - |c| ) \\ |
| 338 |
|
d_2 & = & \frac{1}{6} ( 1 - |c| ) ( 1 + |c| ) |
| 339 |
|
\end{eqnarray} |
| 340 |
|
The coefficients $d_0$ and $d_1$ approach $1/3$ and $1/6$ repectively |
| 341 |
|
as the Courant number, $c$, vanishes. In this limit, the conventional |
| 342 |
|
third order upwind method is recovered. For finite Courant number, the |
| 343 |
|
deviations from the linear method are analogous to the diffusion added |
| 344 |
|
to centered second order advection in the Lax-Wendroff scheme. |
| 345 |
|
|
| 346 |
|
The DST3 method described above must be used in a forward-in-time |
| 347 |
|
manner and is stable for $0 \le |c| \le 1$. Although the scheme |
| 348 |
|
appears to be forward-in-time, it is in fact second order in time and |
| 349 |
|
the accuracy increases with the Courant number! For low Courant |
| 350 |
|
number, DST3 produces very similar results (indistinguishable in |
| 351 |
|
Fig.~\ref{fig:advect-1d-lo}) to the linear third order method but for |
| 352 |
|
large Courant number, where the linear upwind third order method is |
| 353 |
|
unstable, the scheme is extremely accurate |
| 354 |
|
(Fig.~\ref{fig:advect-1d-hi}) with only minor overshoots. |
| 355 |
|
|
| 356 |
|
\subsection{Third order direct space time with flux limiting} |
| 357 |
|
|
| 358 |
|
The overshoots in the DST3 method can be controlled with a flux limiter. |
| 359 |
|
The limited flux is written: |
| 360 |
|
\begin{equation} |
| 361 |
|
F = |
| 362 |
|
\frac{1}{2}(u+|u|)\left( \tau_{i-1} + \psi(r^+)(\tau_{i} - \tau_{i-1} )\right) |
| 363 |
|
+ |
| 364 |
|
\frac{1}{2}(u-|u|)\left( \tau_{i-1} + \psi(r^-)(\tau_{i} - \tau_{i-1} )\right) |
| 365 |
|
\end{equation} |
| 366 |
|
where |
| 367 |
|
\begin{eqnarray} |
| 368 |
|
r^+ & = & \frac{\tau_{i-1} - \tau_{i-2}}{\tau_{i} - \tau_{i-1}} \\ |
| 369 |
|
r^- & = & \frac{\tau_{i+1} - \tau_{i}}{\tau_{i} - \tau_{i-1}} |
| 370 |
|
\end{eqnarray} |
| 371 |
|
and the limiter is the Sweby limiter: |
| 372 |
|
\begin{equation} |
| 373 |
|
\psi(r) = \max[0, \min[\min(1,d_0+d_1r],\frac{1-c}{c}r ]] |
| 374 |
|
\end{equation} |
| 375 |
|
|
| 376 |
|
\subsection{Multi-dimensional advection} |
| 377 |
|
|
| 378 |
|
In many of the aforementioned advection schemes the behaviour in |
| 379 |
|
multiple dimensions is not necessarily as good as the one dimensional |
| 380 |
|
behaviour. For instance, a shape preserving monotonic scheme in one |
| 381 |
|
dimension can have severe shape distortion in two dimensions if the |
| 382 |
|
two components of horizontal fluxes are treated independently. There |
| 383 |
|
is a large body of literature on the subject dealing with this problem |
| 384 |
|
and among the fixes are operator and flux splitting methods, corner |
| 385 |
|
flux methods and more. We have adopted a variant on the standard |
| 386 |
|
splitting methods that allows the flux calculations to be implemented |
| 387 |
|
as if in one dimension: |
| 388 |
|
\begin{eqnarray} |
| 389 |
|
\tau^{n+1/3} & = & \tau^{n} |
| 390 |
|
- \Delta t \left( \frac{1}{\Delta x} \delta_i F^x(\tau^{n}) |
| 391 |
|
+ \tau^{n} \frac{1}{\Delta x} \delta_i u \right) \\ |
| 392 |
|
\tau^{n+2/3} & = & \tau^{n} |
| 393 |
|
- \Delta t \left( \frac{1}{\Delta y} \delta_j F^y(\tau^{n+1/3}) |
| 394 |
|
+ \tau^{n} \frac{1}{\Delta y} \delta_i v \right) \\ |
| 395 |
|
\tau^{n+3/3} & = & \tau^{n} |
| 396 |
|
- \Delta t \left( \frac{1}{\Delta r} \delta_k F^x(\tau^{n+2/3}) |
| 397 |
|
+ \tau^{n} \frac{1}{\Delta r} \delta_i w \right) |
| 398 |
|
\end{eqnarray} |
| 399 |
|
|
| 400 |
|
In order to incorporate this method into the general model algorithm, |
| 401 |
|
we compute the effective tendancy rather than update the tracer so |
| 402 |
|
that other terms such as diffusion are using the $n$ time-level and |
| 403 |
|
not the updated $n+3/3$ quantities: |
| 404 |
|
\begin{equation} |
| 405 |
|
G^{n+1/2}_{adv} = \frac{1}{\Delta t} ( \tau^{n+3/3} - \tau^{n} ) |
| 406 |
|
\end{equation} |
| 407 |
|
So that the over all time-stepping looks likes: |
| 408 |
|
\begin{equation} |
| 409 |
|
\tau^{n+1} = \tau^{n} + \Delta t \left( G^{n+1/2}_{adv} + G_{diff}(\tau^{n}) + G^{n}_{forcing} \right) |
| 410 |
|
\end{equation} |
