Numerical simulation of long surface waves on a rotating sphere within the framework of the full nonlinear dispersive model

The paper examines the sensitivity of long surface wave propagation to Earth sphericity, Coriolis force, centrifugal force and frequency dispersion. For a numerical simulation, we propose the algorithm based on the partitioning of fully nonlinear dispersive equations on a rotating sphere based on a uniformly elliptic equation for the dispersion component of pressure and the hyperbolic system of shallow water equations for the momentum. The momentum equations yield the modified source term in the first approximation in the right hand side. These subproblems resulting from the partitioning are solved on each step of the explicit implemented two-step predictor-corrector scheme. The system of difference equations approximating the elliptic subproblem with the second order is constructed with use of integro-interpolation method and is solved by the SOR method. A model domain includes the most part of the Pacific Ocean. The function, which defines distribution of depth from the still water surface was set to be constant. Gaussian perturbations of free surface with different effective width served as idealized sources of waves. Numerical results show that in terrestrial conditions centrifugal force can be neglected for all the considered sources, but other effects can change the wave pattern considerably. Thus, sphericity increases the maximum wave amplitude, but Coriolis force and dispersion decrease. Besides that, the influence of sphericity and Coriolis force increases with an effective source width, while the influence of dispersion decreases. Wave propagation distance enhances the influence of all these effects. The approximate formula for the quick assessment of the propagation distance sufficient for demonstration of the dispersion effects is derived and its good agreement with calculations is shown.
