Atmospheric and Ocean Waves-572

for questions: I.Orlanski

Continue with Experiment #2 if you need to complete the assignment.

To interpret the solutions for the resonant case see note

Experiment 3. The effects of circular topography.

Chose a particular value of the zonal velocity U and run the case with a 2D topography.

remember that it will take much longer to run. all the parameters could be the same as the previous experiment.

However you need to change few numbers in resolut.h

DIX=129, DIY=67 and DIZ=30;

In zeta_setup the circular mountain parameters are set in ywid=0. efwx=100000 and efwy=100000. and rolatmin=30, rolatmax=60

* compare the solution with the barrier experiment for the same U velocity.

* Describe the structure of each of the dynamic variables in the steady state solution.

Note that the model solution is now on physical z coordinate rather than the terrain following coordinate ZETA of the model.

To see instructions on the model or commands for ferret and grads go back to 1st class.
