Nonbreaking wave-induced mixing in ROMS?

#1 Unread post by jivica »

Dear ROMS users,

before duplicating already done job I am wondering if someone already did it?

I am looking into the additional mixing (via k-e turbulence) with NONBREAKING(!) waves as additional term in the
shear production term (along with shear and bouy2) as a function of depth, Hs and frequency (Aijaz et. al., 2017; Babanin & Chalikov 2012)

Aijaz, S., M. Ghantous, A. V. Babanin, I. Ginis, B. Thomas, and G. Wake (2017),
Nonbreaking wave-induced mixing in upper ocean during tropical cyclones using coupled hurricane-ocean-wave modeling, J. Geophys. Res. Oceans, 122, 3939–3963, doi:10.1002/ 2016JC012219.

Babanin, A. V., and D. Chalikov (2012), Numerical investigation of turbulence generation in non-breaking potential waves, J. Geophys. Res.,
117, C00J17, doi:10.1029/2012JC007929.


Thanks
Ivica

Hi Ivica - Good luck! I stole some code from MOM6 for Langmuir mixing in KPP that I'm playing with. Seems to be an active area of research!

For wave‐induced vertical mixing in KPP, see Wang et al., JGR 2010, based on Qiao et al, JPO 2004. It is now part of CROCO (ROMS_AGRIF)

Yes, it's done by Wang et al., JGR 2010 based on Qiao et al, JPO 2004. I added it as a one of the switches (option) for vertical turbulent mixing :arrow: (lmd_vmix) to the CPP options list (ROMS 3.7), and is running now for the Mid-Atlantic Bight application :idea: . To extract wave induced mixing parameter (Bv: m2/s) user need to run the MASNUM model.Please take a look to the attached file.

Cheers,

Some of us are too lazy to run a wave model. Check out:

Hi Kate, note that nonbreaking-wave-induced mixing and Langmuir turbulence are generally considered two different processes of wave-induced mixing (related to Stokes drift)... Patrick

Thanks for all responses!

Farhid in which version of ROMS you've implemented it?
Looking in Rutger's version and lmd_vmix.F there is only diffusivity due to the internal waves and not because of surface wind induced waves?
lmd_vmix.F

Code: Select all

 
!  Compute interior diffusivity due to wave breaking (Gargett and
!  Holloway.
Patrick,
you have put non-breaking surface wind wave effect into kpp in CROCO? Please if you can point me into which subroutine I should look.
My intention is to put it into gls, it should go into shear production term as addition "W"
\begin{equation}
\ni (M^2 + \alpha N^2) + W
\end{equation}

If you have information about wind induced waves from spectral model (or via coupling) it should be straight forward.
W is simple function of H_S is significant wave height, \omega is peak angular frequency, k is wavenumber, z is depth:
\begin{equation}
W = 0.0014 * k (\frac{\omega H_s}{2) e^{kz})^3
\end{equation}

Thanks!

Ivica

Dear Ivica,

Please have a look to "lmd_vmix.F " and the section, regarding to "Sum contributions due to internal wave breaking...", in fact non-breaking wave induced coefficient (Bv(i,j,k); (m2/s)) here is used to enhance the vertical mixing for momentum (Akv(i,j,k); (m2/s)) and tracer (Akt(i,j,k); (m2/s)) respectively. :arrow:

Akv* = Akv + Bv (1)
Akt* = Akt + cBv (2)

where "c" is weighting coefficient of wave‐induced mixing (Yonggang Wang et al. 2010).

Cheers,
Farshid
