Wetting and drying scheme for POM and its applications to San Francisco Bay
نویسنده
چکیده
A wetting and drying scheme (WDS) is developed to incorporate into a threedimensional sigma-coordinate coastal ocean model with proposing an extended logarithmic profile within bed boundary layers to accurately simulate hydrodynamics in extremely shallow coastal seas. While WDS is simplistically formulated, it conserves water mass and has a good agreement with the analytical solution. The model is also applied to San Francisco Bay, California, which has considerably large intertidal areas, and is confirmed its accuracy by comparing observed data with the model-generated tidal elevations and currents.

Modeling wetting and drying scheme based on an extended logarithmic law for a three-dimensional sigma-coordinate coastal ocean model
A wetting and drying scheme (WDS) is developed to incorporate into a three-dimensional sigmacoordinate coastal ocean model (POM; Blumberg and Mellor, 1983) with proposing an extended logarithmic profile within and above bed boundary layers to accurately simulate 3D hydrodynamics in extremely shallow coastal seas. While the WDS is simplistically formulated, it can selectively retain the computat...
متن کاملThe SLEUTH Land Use Change Model: A Review
Land use change is driven by interaction in space and time between humans and the environment that can be captured by computer simulation models (Veldkamp and Verburg, 2004). In the last few decades, land use change models have played an important role in understanding the causes, mechanisms and consequences of land use dynamics. SLEUTH is an open source cellular automata based land use change ...
متن کاملAn OGCM with movable land–sea boundaries
An ocean general circulation model (OGCM) with wetting and drying (WAD) capabilities removes the vertical-wall coastal assumption and allows simultaneous modeling of open-ocean currents and water run-up (and run-down) across movable land–sea boundaries. This paper implements and tests such a WAD scheme for the Princeton Ocean Model (POM) in its most general three-dimensional setting with strati...
متن کاملA wetting and drying scheme for POM
In shallow-water models, wetting and drying (WAD) are determined by the total water depth D 1⁄4 0 for ‘dry’ and >0 for ‘wet’. Checks are applied to decide the fate of each cell during model integration. It is shown that with bottom friction values commonly used in coastal models, the shallow-water system may be cast into a Burger’s type equation for D. For flows dominated by D (i.e. jrDj jrH j,...
