Wind- and convection-driven mixing in an ocean surface boundary layer

This example simulates mixing by three-dimensional turbulence in an ocean surface boundary layer driven by atmospheric winds and convection. It demonstrates:

• How to set-up a grid with varying spacing in the vertical direction

• How to use the SeawaterBuoyancy model for buoyancy with TEOS10EquationOfState.

• How to use a turbulence closure for large eddy simulation.

• How to use a function to impose a boundary condition.

Install dependencies

First let's make sure we have all required packages installed.

using Pkg
pkg"add Oceananigans, CairoMakie, SeawaterPolynomials, CUDA"

We start by importing all of the packages and functions that we'll need for this example.

using Oceananigans
using Oceananigans.Units

using CUDA
using Random
using Printf
using CairoMakie
using SeawaterPolynomials.TEOS10: TEOS10EquationOfState

The grid

We use 128²×64 grid points with 1 m grid spacing in the horizontal and varying spacing in the vertical, with higher resolution closer to the surface. Here we use a stretching function for the vertical nodes that maintains relatively constant vertical spacing in the mixed layer, which is desirable from a numerical standpoint:

Nx = Ny = 128    # number of points in each of horizontal directions
Nz = 64          # number of points in the vertical direction

Lx = Ly = 128    # (m) domain horizontal extents
Lz = 64          # (m) domain depth

refinement = 1.2 # controls spacing near surface (higher means finer spaced)
stretching = 12  # controls rate of stretching at bottom

# Normalized height ranging from 0 to 1
h(k) = (k - 1) / Nz

# Linear near-surface generator
ζ₀(k) = 1 + (h(k) - 1) / refinement

# Bottom-intensified stretching function
Σ(k) = (1 - exp(-stretching * h(k))) / (1 - exp(-stretching))

# Generating function
z_interfaces(k) = Lz * (ζ₀(k) * Σ(k) - 1)

grid = RectilinearGrid(GPU(),
                       size = (Nx, Nx, Nz),
                       x = (0, Lx),
                       y = (0, Ly),
                       z = z_interfaces)

└── Bounded  z ∈ [-64.0, 0.0] variably spaced with min(Δz)=0.833413, max(Δz)=1.96618

We plot vertical spacing versus depth to inspect the prescribed grid stretching:

fig = Figure(size=(1200, 800))
ax = Axis(fig[1, 1], ylabel = "z (m)", xlabel = "Vertical spacing (m)")

Buoyancy that depends on temperature and salinity

We use the SeawaterBuoyancy model with the TEOS10 equation of state,

ρₒ = 1026 # kg m⁻³, average density at the surface of the world ocean
equation_of_state = TEOS10EquationOfState(reference_density=ρₒ)
buoyancy = SeawaterBuoyancy(; equation_of_state)

SeawaterBuoyancy{Float64}:
├── gravitational_acceleration: 9.80665
└── equation_of_state: BoussinesqEquationOfState{Float64}

Boundary conditions

We calculate the surface temperature flux associated with surface cooling of 200 W m⁻², reference density ρₒ, and heat capacity cᴾ,

Q = 200   # W m⁻², surface _heat_ flux
cᴾ = 3991 # J K⁻¹ kg⁻¹, typical heat capacity for seawater

Jᵀ = Q / (ρₒ * cᴾ) # K m s⁻¹, surface _temperature_ flux

4.884283985946938e-5

Finally, we impose a temperature gradient dTdz both initially (see "Initial conditions" section below) and at the bottom of the domain, culminating in the boundary conditions on temperature,

dTdz = 0.01 # K m⁻¹

T_bcs = FieldBoundaryConditions(top = FluxBoundaryCondition(Jᵀ),
                                bottom = GradientBoundaryCondition(dTdz))

Note that a positive temperature flux at the surface of the ocean implies cooling. This is because a positive temperature flux implies that temperature is fluxed upwards, out of the ocean.

For the velocity field, we imagine a wind blowing over the ocean surface with an average velocity at 10 meters u₁₀, and use a drag coefficient cᴰ to estimate the kinematic stress (that is, stress divided by density) exerted by the wind on the ocean:

u₁₀ = 10  # m s⁻¹, average wind velocity 10 meters above the ocean
cᴰ = 2e-3 # dimensionless drag coefficient
ρₐ = 1.2  # kg m⁻³, approximate average density of air at sea-level
τx = - ρₐ / ρₒ * cᴰ * u₁₀ * abs(u₁₀) # m² s⁻²

-0.00023391812865497074

The boundary conditions on u are thus

u_bcs = FieldBoundaryConditions(top = FluxBoundaryCondition(τx))

└── immersed: DefaultBoundaryCondition (FluxBoundaryCondition: Nothing)

For salinity, S, we impose an evaporative flux of the form

@inline Jˢ(x, y, t, S, evaporation_rate) = - evaporation_rate * S # [salinity unit] m s⁻¹

where S is salinity. We use an evaporation rate of 1 millimeter per hour,

evaporation_rate = 1e-3 / hour # m s⁻¹

2.7777777777777776e-7

We build the Flux evaporation BoundaryCondition with the function Jˢ, indicating that Jˢ depends on salinity S and passing the parameter evaporation_rate,

evaporation_bc = FluxBoundaryCondition(Jˢ, field_dependencies=:S, parameters=evaporation_rate)

FluxBoundaryCondition: ContinuousBoundaryFunction Jˢ at (Nothing, Nothing, Nothing)

The full salinity boundary conditions are

S_bcs = FieldBoundaryConditions(top=evaporation_bc)

Model instantiation

We fill in the final details of the model here, i.e., Coriolis forces, advection scheme, and use the DynamicSmagorinsky closure for large eddy simulation. The effect of both the WENO advection scheme and DynamicSmagorinsky turbulence closure is to dissipate variance at the grid scale. In the context of large eddy simulation, this dissipation may be interpreted as approximating a forward cascade of kinetic energy from resolved motions into motions that are smaller than the grid scale and not explicitly resolved. Note that dissipation of grid-scale variance can be achieved by the WENO advection scheme alone with closure = nothing. Typically, using an explicit closure = DynamicSmagorinsky() will produce stronger dissipation of kinetic energy; whether or not this leads to a higher quality numerical solution depends on the context. An explicit closure = DynamicSmagorinsky() is also useful for diagnosing the kinetic energy dissipation rate (the dissipation rate associated with WENO advection can be computed in principle, but is challenging and relatively computationally intensive).

In the DynamicSmagorinsky closure used below, a dynamic, multi-scale method is used to estimate the Smagorinsky coefficient at every point in time and space. Specifically, we use an algorithm that assumes the coefficient does not depend on the spatial scale of the implicit filter that separates the "true", underlying, and unresolved flow from the "filtered", or computed flow. This implementation corresponds to the "scale-invariant" formulation described by Bou-Zeid et al. (2005).

model = NonhydrostaticModel(grid; buoyancy,
                            advection = WENO(order=7),
                            tracers = (:T, :S),
                            coriolis = FPlane(f=1e-4),
                            closure = DynamicSmagorinsky(),
                            boundary_conditions = (u=u_bcs, T=T_bcs, S=S_bcs))

Initial conditions

Our initial condition for temperature consists of a linear stratification superposed with random noise damped at the walls, while our initial condition for velocity consists only of random noise.

# Random noise damped at top and bottom
Ξ(z) = randn() * z / model.grid.Lz * (1 + z / model.grid.Lz) # noise

# Temperature initial condition: a stable density gradient with random noise superposed.
Tᵢ(x, y, z) = 20 + dTdz * z + dTdz * model.grid.Lz * 2e-6 * Ξ(z)

# Velocity initial condition: random noise scaled by the friction velocity.
uᵢ(x, y, z) = sqrt(abs(τx)) * 1e-3 * Ξ(z)

# `set!` the `model` fields using functions or constants:
set!(model, u=uᵢ, w=uᵢ, T=Tᵢ, S=35)

Setting up a simulation

We set-up a simulation with an initial time-step of 10 seconds that stops at 2 hours, with adaptive time-stepping and progress printing.

simulation = Simulation(model, Δt=10, stop_time=2hours)

The TimeStepWizard helps ensure stable time-stepping with a Courant-Freidrichs-Lewy (CFL) number of 0.7.

conjure_time_step_wizard!(simulation, cfl=0.7)

Nice progress messaging is helpful:

# Print a progress message
progress_message(sim) = @printf("Iteration: %04d, time: %s, Δt: %s, max(|w|) = %.1e ms⁻¹, wall time: %s\n",
                                iteration(sim), prettytime(sim), prettytime(sim.Δt),
                                maximum(abs, sim.model.velocities.w), prettytime(sim.run_wall_time))

add_callback!(simulation, progress_message, IterationInterval(200))

We then set up the simulation:

Output

We use the JLD2Writer to save slices of the velocity fields, tracer fields, and eddy diffusivities. The prefix keyword argument to JLD2Writer indicates that output will be saved in ocean_wind_mixing_and_convection.jld2.

# Create a NamedTuple with eddy viscosity
eddy_viscosity = (; νₑ = model.closure_fields.νₑ)

We are now ready to animate using Makie. We use Makie's Observable to animate the data. To dive into how Observables work we refer to Makie.jl's Documentation.

times = time_series.w.times
n = Observable(length(times))

And now record a movie. We start the animation at   minutes since things are pretty boring till then:

intro = searchsortedfirst(times, 10minutes)
frames = intro:length(times)
