An Incremental Remapping Transport Scheme on a Spherical Geodesic Grid
Weather and climate models contain equations for transporting conserved quantities such as the mass of air, water, ice, and associated tracers. Ideally, the numerical schemes used to solve these equations should be conservative, spatially accurate, and monotonicity-preserving. One such scheme is incremental remapping, previously developed for transport on quadrilateral grids. Here the increment...
متن کاملSpherical Harmonic Decomposition on a Cubic Grid
A method is described by which a function defined on a cubic grid (as from a finite difference solution of a partial differential equation) can be resolved into spherical harmonic components at some fixed radius. This has applications to the treatment of boundary conditions imposed at radii larger than the size of the grid, following Abrahams, Rezzola, Rupright et al. [1]. In the method describ...
متن کاملTaxonomy of Global Air Transport
Data from the United Nations and the International Civil Aviation Organization Information Systems were used as a base for characterizing, classifying and comparing air transport demand and supply features of 156 countries. Relevant data from 1980 were chosen to reflect five sets of characteristics namely, air transport, 50cm-economic status, population demography, geographical and environmenta...
متن کاملNumerical Integration of the Primitive Equations on a Spherical Grid
A new spherical grid system whose grid density on the globe is almost homogeneous is proposed. The elementary rules of finite differencing on the grid system are defined so that a desirable condition for numerical area integration is satisfied. The integrations of primitive equations for a barotropic atmosphere with free surface are made. The patterns of initial fields are the same as Phillips ...
متن کاملSemi-Lagrangian advection on a spherical geodesic grid
A simple and efficient numerical method for solving the advection equation on the spherical surface is presented. To overcome the well-known ‘pole problem’ related to the polar singularity of spherical coordinates, the space discretization is performed on a geodesic grid derived by a uniform triangulation of the sphere; the time discretization uses a semi-Lagrangian approach. These two choices,...
