[MITgcm-support] questions about non-hydrostiatic module

[宋 朋洋]

Thanks for your reply, Jean-Michel.

1.     Sorry, I didn’t understand what you mean by “Delta t”. I think that u** and v** is a correction of u* and v* by surface elevation, which still has a dimention of velocity (m/s) , but what is needed on the right side of Eq.(2.68) is a dimention of acceleration (m/s^2). Did you mean \partial_t?

2.     I think to MITgcm, it is more safe to calulate by continuity, because nonhydrostatic pressure is solved by a method of iteration, errors can always exist. However, continuity is a strong constraint to stability, compared to forward integration. Just personal idea.
Regards,
Pengyang Song

Hi Pengyang,

Regarding question 1, I think a "Delta t" is missing there.
Thanks for pointing to this.
But probably better to keep u**, v** & w** (not wrong) to remain
closer to what is done in the code.

And regarding question 2, the fluid is incompressible, so the
continuity equation has to be satisfied as well as the prognostic equation for w(n+1).
In the analytical form, the system of equations guarantees both.
And indeed, when/if the solver converges perfectly, the two equations
give the same answer.

Cheers,
Jean-Michel
