ABSTRACT

The one-parameter three-time-level family of -accurate schemes, introduced in Rivest et al. (1994) to address the problem of the spurious resonant response of semi-implicit semi-Lagrangian schemes at large Courant number, has been generalized to a two-parameter family by introducing the possibility of evaluating total derivatives using an additional time level. The merits of different members of this family based on both theory and results are assessed. The additional degree of freedom might be expected a priori to permit a reduction of the time truncation errors while still maintaining stability and avoiding spurious resonance. Resonance, stability and truncation error analyses for the proposed generalized family of schemes are given. The sub-family that is formally -accurate is unfortunately unstable for gravity modes. Sample integrations for various members of the generalized family are shown. Results are consistent with theory, and stable non-resonant forecasts at large Courant number are possible for a fairly broad choice of values of the two free parameters. Of the two methods proposed in Rivest et al. (1994) for computing trajectories, the one using a piecewise-defined trajectory is to be preferred to that using a single great-circle arc, since it is more accurate at large timestep for some members of the generalized family.

1. INTRODUCTION

Since Robert et al. (1985) first demonstrated a semi-implicit semi-Lagrangian discretization of the hydrostatic primitive equations, this method has found increasing favor at weather-forecasting and climate centers throughout the world (e.g., Bates et al. 1993; McDonald and Haugen 1992; Purser and Leslie 1994; Ritchie and Beaudoin 1994; Ritchie et al. 1995; Tanguay et al. 1989; Williamson and Olson 1994).

Although it has been known for some time (Kaas 1987; Coiffier et al. 1987; Staniforth & Côté 1991; Tanguay et al. 1992) that semi-implicit semi-Lagrangian schemes can experience difficulties at high Courant number in the presence of orography, it is only recently that this problem has been elucidated. In Rivest et al. (1994), hereafter referred to as RSR94, its source was clearly identified and a solution proposed in a two-time-level context. It consists of off-centering the semi-implicitly-treated terms along the trajectory, and Rivest & Staniforth (1995) have proposed a possible retrofit scheme for three-time-level-based centered schemes. Héreil & Laprise (1995) have recently extended the RSR94 analysis to the semi-implicit semi-Lagrangian discretization of Tanguay et al. (1990) of the non-hydrostatic Euler equations.

The goals of the present study are to present a generalization of the RSR94 family of schemes, and to assess the merits of different members of this family based on both theory and results.

2. THEORY

a. The generalized family of O([[Delta]]t2) schemes

The linearized one-dimensional shallow-water equations after a three-time-level semi-implicit semi-Lagrangian discretization may be written as (cf. RSR94):

, (2.1)

, (2.2)

, (2.3)

where and are respectively the fluid depth and orographic height multiplied by , the other symbols have their usual meaning, and for the generalized family of schemes introduced here:

, (2.4)

, (2.5)

. (2.6)

The basic-state quantities and are assumed non-zero, and the orographic geopotential is both non-zero and time invariant. The linearized equations before discretization may be recovered by redefining and as:

, (2.7)

. (2.8)

The above 2-parameter ( ,) family of schemes is the most general -accurate scheme based on three time levels, and is a generalization of the 1-parameter ( ) family presented in RSR94. The parameter here is exactly as in RSR94. It was introduced there to decenter the 2-time-level Crank-Nicolson semi-implicit semi-Lagrangian discretization, and thereby address the problem of spurious orogrophically-induced resonance by introducing a third time level to evaluate the time-averaged contributions along the trajectory. A further new parameter has been added here. It optionally introduces the use of a third time level in the evaluation of the time derivatives along the trajectory. This additional degree of freedom might be expected a priori to permit an improvement to the RSR94 family of schemes by reducing the time truncation errors [possibly to ] while still maintaining stability and avoiding spurious resonance. This is discussed further later. Special cases of the above generalized scheme for particular values of and are summarized in Table 1.

b. Decomposition of the solution of the linearized equations

The complete solution to the linear system (2.1)-(2.3) can be written as the sum of free and forced modes:

. (2.7)

The free solutions satisfy (2.1)-(2.3) with the forcing set identically to zero. Letting

, (2.8)

each free mode (there are three for each wavenumber) then satisfies

, (2.9)

where

, (2.10)

, (2.11)

, (2.12)

, (2.13)

and exact interpolation has been assumed. Setting

, (2.14)

then gives the dispersion relation for . Note that for the exact solution of the linearized equations (with no discretization), (2.11)-(2.12) may be replaced by the definitions

, (2.15)

, (2.16)

and the usual (free) Rossby and gravity-wave dispersion relations then result from (2.14):

(2.17)

The forced solutions satisfy (2.1)-(2.3) in the absence of any time variation ( ), and may be Fourier decomposed as

. (2.18)

They then satisfy

. (2.19)

Note that for the exact solution of the linearized equations (with no discretization), simplifies to

, (2.20)

(cf. RSR94). Physical resonance then occurs when the determinant of vanishes, i.e. when

, (2.21)

which, as discussed in RSR94, corresponds to supersonic flow and is unlikely to occur in a shallow-water model representative of the atmosphere at 500 hPa.

The existence or not of resonance is determined from (2.19), and a scheme's stability from the solutions of the dispersion relation (2.14). Note that the matrix defined by (2.10) plays a determining role for both resonance and stability. These latter are respectively discussed in the following two sub-sections.

c. Analysis of resonance

For the discretized linear equations, whenever

, (2.22)

the stationary forced gravity modes determined by (2.19) are resonant, and these resonances may be spurious (RSR94). This leads to the following two quadratic equations that govern the resonance of the stationary forced gravity solutions:

, (2.23)

where

, (2.24)

. (2.25)

Since is real by definition, resonance is only possible if lies on the unit circle, i.e. if

. (2.26)

For the special case , the conditions (2.23) for resonance in the present 2-parameter ( ) family of schemes reduce to (15) of RSR94 for their 1-parameter ( ) family. The further special case (cf. Table 1), corresponds to the conditions (9) of RSR94 for the spurious resonance of centered 2-time-level semi-implicit semi-Lagrangian schemes. As discussed in RSR94, spurious resonance occurs for certain combinations of large Courant number and nondimensional wavenumbers of the orographic forcing, and can be avoided by suitably off-centering the time discretization along the trajectory. In the present study this is controlled by the and parameters.

Summarizing, any of the schemes considered here will be non-resonant provided . They may not however necessarily be stable, and this aspect of the discretization is examined in the following sub-section.

d. Analysis of stability

Stability is determined from the dispersion relation obtained by solving (2.14). Thus

, (2.27)

where , (2.28)

, (2.29)

and the scheme is stable provided

. (2.30)

Note that (2.27) can be identified with the dispersion relation that would result from applying the generalized family of schemes of the present study to an oscillation equation, yielding the discretization

, (2.31)

where is real. This is equivalent to having performed a decomposition in terms of the eigen-functions of the matrix . The leading-order term of the truncation error (placed on the right-hand side of 2.31) is

. (2.32)

For the quadratic associated with the Rossby modes (for which ), (2.27) factors easily and or . The first root corresponds to the physical Rossby mode and it is stable since it satisfies (2.30). The other root corresponds to a computational Rossby mode (introduced by discretizing a 1st-order-in-time equation over three time levels), and it will satisfy (2.30) and be stable provided . Now corresponds to a centered three-time-level discretization, and this value for must be excluded since (see above and RSR94) the stationary forced gravity modes would suffer from spurious resonance. Although satisfaction of the strict inequality is sufficient to stabilize the computational Rossby mode, should be positive, otherwise it will have the undesirable property of changing the sign of this computational mode at alternate timesteps (timestep decoupling). should not only be positive but small to ensure adequate damping of this computational mode during the integration.

For the quadratic associated with the gravity modes (for which ), (2.27) does not factor easily. It is nevertheless possible to get some insight into the influence of and on the stability of the free gravity solutions by solving (2.27) asymptotically for for the physical mode when is small. Taking its modulus then gives

. (2.33)

From above, since for stability of the computational Rossby solution, it is necessary to take

, (2.34)

in order to both satisfy the stability condition (2.30) and to also remain off resonance. This is a necessary condition for stability. From (2.32), it has the further consequence that the only -accurate member of the present generalized family of three-time-level schemes (i.e. ) is unstable and therefore inadmissible. This is unfortunate. By numerically solving (2.27) when for a broad range of values of the parameters , , and , it is found that the valid domain for remaining both stable and off resonance is

, (2.35)

as suggested by the above analysis.

Summarizing, it is advisable to choose and from the more restricted domain

, (2.36)

to avoid having a time-decoupled computational Rossby mode. It is also advisable to use the smallest-possible values of and (consistent with being adequately off-resonance), to respectively minimize the truncation errors (see 2.32) and to maximally damp the computational Rossby mode.

3. RESULTS

a. Preliminaries and control integration ( )

The variable-resolution global shallow-water model described in Côté et al. (1993) has been modified to include the present generalized family of semi-implicit semi-Lagrangian time schemes. To evaluate the proposed family of schemes and to provide some guidance on the choice of the values for the parameters and , the methodology introduced in RSR94 is adopted. The grid configuration and the model orography used here are as depicted in their Figs. 4 and 5. The grid has a uniform ( ) resolution window over N. America, and the orography is zero everywhere outside this window. The experiments consist of 48-h forecasts initiated from the 500hPa height and wind analyses of 1200 UTC 12 February 1979 after an implicit-normal-mode initialization. The initialized geopotential used in all of the described experiments is displayed in Fig. 6 of RSR94.

Two methods for computing trajectories were described in RSR94, and for both of these the upstream point at time is obtained as in Côté et al. (1993) using winds extrapolated forward from those at ess the problem of the spurious resonance of semi-implicit semi-Lagrangian schemes at large Courant number, has been generalized to a two-parameter three-time-level family by introducing the possibility of evaluating total derivatives using an additional time level of information. The RSR94 family can be considered to be the limiting case of the generalized family that maximally simplifies the evaluation (using a two-time-level difference) of the total derivatives. The other limiting case is the "backward-implicit" scheme, where maximum simplification of the evaluation (entirely at the arrival point) of the other terms occurs, and where an additional (third) time level is employed to evaluate the total derivatives. It has the virtues that the only upstream evaluations required are those associated with the total derivatives, and that it does not require derivative terms such as and to be evaluated at any time other than the present one (which is done implicitly and only at arrival meshpoints). Both of these limiting cases are off-centered discretizations, to avoid spurious resonance, and all schemes examined are accurate.

Resonance, stability and truncation-error analyses have been performed for the proposed generalized family of schemes. Theory then leads to the following conclusions:

a) to avoid instability and resonance the domain of validity for the parameters is ( , );

b) it is advisable to choose and from the more restricted domain ( , ), to avoid having a time-decoupled computational Rossby mode;

c) it is also advisable to use the smallest-possible values of and (consistent with being adequately off resonance), to respectively minimize the truncation errors and to maximally damp the computational Rossby mode;

d) the backward-implicit scheme has twice the damping rate of the RSR94 scheme, even though they both have the same leading-order truncation error; and

e) although there is a sub-family of the generalized family of schemes that is formally -accurate ( , free), it is unstable for the gravity modes; this is unfortunate; starting from a stable-but-resonant centered two-time-level scheme ( ), a degree of freedom can be added to address resonance (by using an additional time level and thereby decentering either the evaluation of the total derivatives or the other terms), but adding a further degree of freedom (while still only using three time levels) does not permit increasing accuracy to .

Sample integrations for various members of the generalized family were performed. It was found that the results were consistent with the theory, and that stable non-resonant forecasts at large Courant number are possible for a fairly-broad choice of values for the and parameters. Within the RSR94 family of schemes, the scheme ( ) for which results were shown in RSR94 is a good choice but not an optimal one. A smaller value of than 1/2, but no smaller than 1/6, can reduce the leading-order term for the truncation error by as much as a factor of 2 (see 2.32) and the damping rate by as much as a factor of 3 (see 2.33), while still acceptably controlling resonance. Finally, it was found that while either of the two methods presented in RSR94 for computing the trajectories is acceptable for their scheme, only one of them is acceptable at large timestep for some members of the generalized family. The method that computes the trajectory in a piecewise fashion is therefore to be preferred to the one that uses a single great-circle trajectory.
