Estimation of the internal pressure gradient in σ-coordinate ocean models: comparison of second-, fourth-, and sixth-order schemes 总被引：1，自引：1，他引：0
Sigma-coordinate ocean models are attractive because of their abilities to resolve bottom and surface boundary layers. However,
these models can have large internal pressure gradient (IPG) errors. In this paper, two classes of methods for the estimation
of the IPGs are assessed. The first is based on the integral approach used in the Princeton Ocean Model (POM). The second
is suggested by Shchepetkin and McWilliams (2003) based on Green’s theorem; thus, area integrals of the pressure forces are transformed into line integrals. Numerical tests
on the seamount problem, as well as on a northwestern Atlantic grid using both classes of methods, are presented. For each
class, second-, fourth-, and sixth-order approximations are tested. Results produced with a fourth-order compact method and
with cubic spline methods are also given. The results show that the methods based on the POM approach in general give smaller
errors than the corresponding methods given in Shchepetkin and McWilliams (2003). The POM approach also is more robust when noise is added to the topography. In particular, the IPG errors may be substantially
reduced by using the computationally simple fourth-order method from McCalpin (1994). 相似文献

The southern blue whiting Micromesistius australis (Norman, 1937) is found in two geographically distinct areas, the South Atlantic and south‐west Pacific Oceans. To date there has been no appraisal of the genetic relationships between the populations in these two areas. Here, we present analyses of New Zealand and Falkland southern blue whiting using mini‐ and microsatellite loci. Two out of six loci show highly significant allele frequency heterogeneities between the two areas, strongly suggesting genetically distinct populations. 相似文献

Numerical studies of flow over a sill: sensitivity of the non-hydrostatic effects to the grid size 总被引：1，自引：1，他引：0
A non-hydrostatic terrain-following model in cross sectional form is applied to study the processes in the lee of a sill in
an idealized stratified fjord during super-critical tidal inflow. A sequence of numerical studies with horizontal grid sizes
in the range from 100 to 1.5625 m are performed. All experiments are repeated using both hydrostatic and non-hydrostatic versions
of the model, allowing a systematic study of possible non-hydrostatic pressure effects and also of the sensitivity of these
effects to the horizontal grid size. The length scales and periods of the internal waves in the lee of the sill are gradually
reduced and the amplitudes of these waves are increased as the grid size is reduced from 100 down to 12.5 m. With a further
reduction in grid size, more short time and space scale motions become superimposed on the internal waves. Associated with
the internal wave activity, there is a deeper separation point that is fairly robust to all parameters investigated. Another
separation point nearer to the top of the sill appears in the numerical results from the high-resolution studies with the
non-hydrostatic model. Associated with this shallower separation point, an overturning vortex appears in the same set of numerical
solutions. This vortex grows in strength with reduced grid size in the non-hydrostatic experiments. The effects of the non-hydrostatic
pressure on the velocity and temperature fields grow with reduced grid size. In the experiments with horizontal grid sizes
equal to 100 or 50 m, the non-hydrostatic pressure effects are small. For smaller grid sizes, the time mean velocity and temperature
fields are also clearly affected by the non-hydrostatic pressure adjustments. 相似文献

The dispersion and deposition of particulate organic matter from a fish cage located in an idealized curved channel with a 90° bend are studied for different horizontal grid resolutions. The model system consists of a three-dimensional, random-walk particle tracking model coupled to a terrain-following ocean model. The particle tracking model is a Lagrangian particle tracking simulator which uses the local flow field, simulated by the ocean model, for advection of the particles and random walk to simulate the turbulent diffusion. The sinking of particles is modeled by imposing an individual particle settling velocity. As the homogeneous water flows through the bend in the channel, the results show that a cross-channel secondary circulation is developed. The motion of this flow is similar to a helical motion where the water in the upper layers moves towards the outer bank and towards the inner bank in the lower layers. The intensity of the secondary circulation will depend on the viscosity scheme and increases as the horizontal grid resolution decreases which significantly affects the distribution of the particles on the seabed. The presence of the secondary circulation leads to that most of the particles that settle, settle close to the inner bank of the channel. 相似文献
