Very early blowing up problem

#1 Unread post by lcbernardo »

Hi everyone,

I am quite new to ROMS and would like to know how to use it properly. So far, I have successfully run some of the test cases, and also tried running simple coastal applications for some of my study sites. For these cases, I did not really need to have 3D boundary and initial conditions, and could manage with some simple tidal forcing.

Lately however, I am trying to perform some regional simulations, but I am having a difficult time getting them to run, and my early attempts have all led to the model blowing up after a few time-steps. I am trying to run a regional simulation for areas south of Japan, with which I hope to eventually use to try the nesting features.

By modifying some of the available ROMS matlab scripts, I generated some test initial and boundary forcing files which I derived from a non-ROMS coarse-resolution model developed by a colleague. I generated initial and boundary conditions for temperature, salt, u, v, ubar, vbar, and zeta, but since the model I am running is regional in scale, I have not added tidal forcing, which was also the practice followed by my colleague. However, the runs I try keep blowing up after only a few time steps, and I am really confused regarding what the problem is. I don't think that the inputs I have provided are too unrealistic to lead to blowing up right away, but more likely it is due to my inexperience. I would like to ask for help regarding how to properly debug the run.

The following are the options from my cppdefs.h file:

#define UV_VIS2
#define MIX_GEO_UV
#define MIX_GEO_TS
#undef ANA_GRID
#define MASKING
#define UV_ADV
#define UV_COR
#define TS_DIF2
#define TS_U3HADVECTION
#define TS_SADVECTION

#define NONLIN_EOS
#define SALINITY
#define DJ_GRADPS
#define SOLVE3D
#define SPLINES
#define WET_DRY

/*** Option for Boundary condition ***/

#define RADIATION_2D

#define SOLAR_SOURCE

#define BULK_FLUXES
#ifdef BULK_FLUXES
#define LONGWAVE
#define EMINUSP
#else
#define ANA_SMFLUX
#define ANA_STFLUX
#endif

#define UV_LOGDRAG
#define SSW_LOGINT
#define LIMIT_BSTRESS

#ifdef SOLVE3D
#define GLS_MIXING
#endif

#if defined GLS_MIXING
#define KANTHA_CLAYSON
#undef CANUTO_A
#define N2S2_HORAVG
#endif

#define ANA_BPFLUX
#define ANA_BTFLUX
#define ANA_BSFLUX
#define ANA_SPFLUX



When I try to run the model, I then get the following output, which includes the information on my run configuration:

I previously thought the problem had to do with some grossly unrealistic values generated when I created the forcing files. But I have checked for these and found none. Hence, I would greatly appreciate any advice or suggestions on how to identify the problems. Thank you very much!

This is worrisome:
Maximum grid stiffness ratios: rx0 = 9.993076E-01 (Beckmann and Haidvogel)
Perhaps you should try some bathymetry smoothing. It really does make a difference to model stability.

Hi Kate,

Thank you so much for pointing this out, and I'll remember it as I continue my learning. I'll attempt some bathymetry smoothing and see what difference it can make.

In relation to this, when I was simulating smaller domains using other models, I would start with a relatively "simple" configuration, such as tidally forced open boundaries and homogenous temperature and salinity profiles. Using this simplified configuration, I could identify problems related to bathymetry. For my present regional case, I immediately moved into creating 3D initial and boundary conditions, but is there a simpler configuration I can try to have a good chance of detecting bathymetry related problems early on?

A few comments aside from what Kate suggested.

1. Turn off Wet/Dry and see if the model still blows up.
2. You said you turned on TS_SADVECTION, but your ROMS log says TS_C4VADVECTION. So I am confused. Don't use TS_SADVECTION.
3. Try other GLS mixing like k-omega, not k-e.
4. You max courant number is too low. You are wasting CPU resources. This will not blow up the model though.
5. Too much bathy smoothing will compromise the accuracy of the model so be careful. Turn on UV_DIAGNOSTICS and TS_DIAGNOSTICS. In the diagnostic file, you can see 3D pressure gradient terms. If the bottom values are too high, pressure gradient error may be high. you may want to reduce it. Your rx1 value looks ok, so I am not sure if that's the case, though.

Hope this helps. Good luck.

Hi DJ,

Thank you for the additional comments and suggestions. So far, doing some bathymetric smoothing seems to have changed the results somewhat, but indeed, I have to be careful about overdoing it. I'll also turn on the diagnostics for my succeeding tests.

I also want to maximize the available computational resources, so I appreciate your comment about the Courant number. And since I'm working on a relatively regional scale, it does makes sense to turn off the wetting and drying for now. Thanks again!

I can suggest:

1. Not using the spline-based vertical advection for momentum & tracers but instead using say the default 4th order centered schemes
2. Switching off the SPLINE CPP option
3. Reducing the time step
4. Changing the baroclinic:barotropic splitting ratio (NDTFAST) - I usually use 20, 30 or 40

Hi lanerolle,

Thank you for your suggestions. I'll try not using the spline-related schemes in one of my test configurations. As for the timestep, I was of the thinking that it was already very small given that the horizontal grid resolution is greater than 1 km. But maybe it is necessary to handle the bathymetric complexity? I had my NDTFAST orginally at 20, and tried to increase it to see if it would help solve the problem. I will decrease it to one of the values you suggested.

Re: Very early blowing up problem

On the timestep (both dt and ndtfast), you try things and then if it's stable, try a longer timestep. If it's unstable, try a shorter timestep. You might be right at the edge, in which it runs for thousands of steps, then blows up. Sometimes you can get through those by using a shorter timestep for a few days, then go back to what you had before. The Courant numbers are there for guidance, but of course depend on the instantaneous currants.

Hi Kate,

Thank you for the guidance on selecting the proper timestep. In numerical models I've tried before, ocean or other, selecting the proper timestep indeed involved something similar to what you have suggested. What's new to me is the use of not one but two (barotropic and baroclinic), which I will need to read up upon.

Splitting time step is a way to run a full 3D ocean model more computationally efficiently as baroclinic mode is much slower than barotropic mode. It is used for recent ocean models: structured, unstructured models alike. GETM, MOM, FVCOM etc.

By the way, what I suggested was to identify the problem you are facing, not to make the model work.
You included lots of options. Ideally, you need to check them one by one to identify what option or input data cause the problem. Fortunately, there is lots of information on this forum and many of the problems were identified by ROMS users and developers in the past. So this forum does help a lot to a newbie (I still can call myself a newbie compared to other experienced modelers.....).

When ROMS blows up, the first thing to do (at least to me) is to check restart file and see if there is any suspicious values (e.g. current speed higher than 5 m/s, water level higher than 20 m etc.). And also check input data to see if there are any NaNs etc. in the input files. Debug mode also often helps you identify problems (-g in fortran option).

Good luck

Hi DJ and all,

Thank you for the explanation of the time-splitting feature. I'll try to look more into the details as I become more familiar with the model.

I'd like to report that with my recent runs, the early blowing up problem stopped occurring after doing some bathymetry smoothing. Now I'm trying to check the differences when turning some features on or off, like wetting and drying and the splines. Of course, I continue to improve the bathymetric data set in such a way that the important features are still well-reproduced in spite of the smoothing.

As for the forums, I have indeed found the discussions helpful as I go along, and the bookmark feature has really come in handy as I continue to learn. I think learning how to implement tides will come next for me.

I'm also now looking into the proper boundary conditions. And if I may throw in an additional question, for the case wherein you have boundary forcing data for all relevant fields (zeta, u, v, ubar, vbar, salt, temperature), what would be the best combination of boundary conditions to use? Following some of the other users in the forums, I have chosen a combination of Chapman and Flather, with Rad+Nudging as in the following:

LBC(isFsur) == Cha Cha Cha Cha ! free-surface
LBC(isUbar) == Fla Fla Fla Fla ! 2D U-momentum
LBC(isVbar) == Fla Fla Fla Fla ! 2D V-momentum
LBC(isUvel) == RadNud RadNud RadNud RadNud ! 3D U-momentum
LBC(isVvel) == RadNud RadNud RadNud RadNud ! 3D V-momentum
LBC(isMtke) == Gra Gra Gra Gra ! mixing TKE

LBC(isTvar) == RadNud RadNud RadNud RadNud \ ! temperature
RadNud RadNud RadNud RadNud ! salinity

However, would it make more sense to use the clamped boundary condition for all fields, given that the input data is quite "complete"?

Once again, thank you all for your kind assistance.

Hi Lizhicheng,

Your rx0 and rx1 values are still too high I think. But I think it would be better to show your complete log file to see what other possible problems the model may have.

As for bathymetry smoothing, you can try to use GridBuilder (https://austides.com/downloads/) or other tools which allow you to specify your target rx0 and rx1 values.

When doing wetting and drying, it is possible to have huge rx0 numbers in the wet-dry zone and still be OK. It is also possible to be in trouble there, so you need to really know what you are doing. I know that a "dry" cell 1 m above sea level next to a fjord can spell trouble.

There might still be code tweaks that John Warner and I have that Hernan doesn't for making wetting and drying behave better.
