Amplification of Forced Rossby Waves in the Presence of a Nonlinear Critical Layer
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The nondivergent barotropic vorticity equation is integrated numerically in order to investigate a potential resonance mechanism for Rossby waves on a shear flow in the presence of a nonlinear critical layer. lie numerical ...
Application of a Semi-Lagrangian Integration Scheme to the Moisture Equation in a Regional Forecast Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Scale-dependent phase errors are characteristic of Eulerian advection schemes and can lead to significant erroneous dispersion, especially for features whose length scales are near the resolution limits of a numerical ...
Eliminating the Interpolation Associated with the Semi-Lagrangian Scheme
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: There are several reasons why it is desirable to eliminate the interpolation associated with the conventional semi-Larangian scheme. Interpolation leads to smoothing and is also the most costly operation associated with ...
Semi-Lagrangian Advection on a Gaussian Grid
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The treatment of advection is related to the stability, accuracy and efficiency of models used in numerical weather prediction. In order to remain stable, conventional Eulerian advection schemes must respect a Courant-Fr ...
A Note on the Conservation of Potential Vorticity Across a Discontinuity in Shallow Water with Application to Theories of Equatorial Dynamics and Rossby Lee Waves
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: It is shown that potential vorticity, as usually defined for slow motions in shallow water, is conserved across a discontinuity in bottom slope if the total depth is continuous, but not across a discontinuity in the depth ...
