Re: Dale B. Haidvogel (1949-2023)

Sad news...

I will always remember Dale as one of the pioneers of coastal ocean modeling, a great mentor and a good listener. He was part of a great epoch in physical oceanography, and the great leader.

On restart, ROMS cannot see 3rd file in the multi-file list

I am running a coastal application in ROMS providing wind velocities (and other forcing) as multiple files (one file per year, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012). Because of the wall clock limit on the supercomputer I can run it for about 3 model months at a time. It runs fine (with restarts roughly ever...

Anybody looking into that, check dimensions. Is U a velocity (m/s)?
sqrt(g/H) has units of (1/s). Does the wave aplitude have to be sqrt(g*H)?

Use a better resolution. Try to resolve the boundary layer. Or, for the sake of experiment,
increase Akv by an order of magnitude.

The Ekman layer thickness is delta=sqrt(2*Akv/f) (see Pedlosky'87, 4.3.16) Akv=1.e-3 m2/s f=1.e-4 1/s => delta= 4m So the sharp change you see in u,v in the upper 4 m is Ekman veering. Besides, sustr=Akv du/dz at the surface. You are probably trying to estimate it at the points below the surface. Th...

W for tracer advection

Here is a question about the computation of W before time-stepping tracer fields. Let's consider a b/c time step, from time n to n+1. To time-step tracers, mass fluxes are needed at the intermediate time n+1/2 (is my interpretation correct?). Horizontal fluxes are updated in step3d_uv, and vertical ...

The wind speed scale is meters per sec, while the ocean surf currents are 1-2 orders of magnitude as small. Subtracting the ocean currents from wind currents would change the resulting atm. flux only by 1-10% (the difference would be esp. small in most important cases, when winds are strong). What d...

The underlying continuous equations (w/out dissipation) with any type of local boundary conditions used in ROMS constitute an ill-posed problem (ref: Oliger and Sundstrom, SIAM J. Appl. Math, 1978). That may mean for us that ROMS with open boundary conditions (and low enough dissipation - like coast...

DT=240 sec
NDFAST=30
Maximum barotropic Courant Number = 1.77177877E-01

Channel depth H=100 m,
so wave_phase_speed=sqrt(gH) = 31.2 m/s

wave_length_of_interest = channel length =100 km (=1.e+5 m)

2*pi * dt * wave_phase_speed / wave_length_of_interest = 0.47
