Model set-up
To build the model, we specify the grid, Stokes drift, boundary conditions, and Coriolis parameter.
Domain and numerical grid specification
We use a modest resolution and the same total extent as Wagner et al. (2021),
grid = RectilinearGrid(GPU(), size=(128, 128, 64), extent=(128, 128, 64))
128×128×64 RectilinearGrid{Float64, Periodic, Periodic, Bounded} on CUDAGPU with 3×3×3 halo
├── Periodic x ∈ [0.0, 128.0) regularly spaced with Δx=1.0
├── Periodic y ∈ [0.0, 128.0) regularly spaced with Δy=1.0
└── Bounded z ∈ [-64.0, 0.0] regularly spaced with Δz=1.0
The Stokes Drift profile
The surface wave Stokes drift profile prescribed in Wagner et al. (2021), corresponds to a 'monochromatic' (that is, single-frequency) wave field.
A monochromatic wave field is characterized by its wavelength and amplitude (half the distance from wave crest to wave trough), which determine the wave frequency and the vertical scale of the Stokes drift profile.
using Oceananigans.BuoyancyFormulations: g_Earth
amplitude = 0.8 # m
wavelength = 60 # m
wavenumber = 2π / wavelength # m⁻¹
frequency = sqrt(g_Earth * wavenumber) # s⁻¹
# The vertical scale over which the Stokes drift of a monochromatic surface wave
# decays away from the surface is `1/2wavenumber`, or
const vertical_scale = wavelength / 4π
# Stokes drift velocity at the surface
const Uˢ = amplitude^2 * wavenumber * frequency # m s⁻¹
0.06791774197745354
The const
declarations ensure that Stokes drift functions compile on the GPU. To run this example on the GPU, include GPU()
in the RectilinearGrid
constructor above.
The Stokes drift profile is
uˢ(z) = Uˢ * exp(z / vertical_scale)
uˢ (generic function with 1 method)
and its z
-derivative is
∂z_uˢ(z, t) = 1 / vertical_scale * Uˢ * exp(z / vertical_scale)
∂z_uˢ (generic function with 1 method)
Oceananigans implements the Craik-Leibovich approximation for surface wave effects using the Lagrangian-mean velocity field as its prognostic momentum variable. In other words, model.velocities.u
is the Lagrangian-mean $x$-velocity beneath surface waves. This differs from models that use the Eulerian-mean velocity field as a prognostic variable, but has the advantage that $u$ accounts for the total advection of tracers and momentum, and that $u = v = w = 0$ is a steady solution even when Coriolis forces are present. See the physics documentation for more information.
Finally, we note that the time-derivative of the Stokes drift must be provided if the Stokes drift and surface wave field undergoes forced changes in time. In this example, the Stokes drift is constant and thus the time-derivative of the Stokes drift is 0.
Boundary conditions
At the surface $z = 0$, Wagner et al. (2021) impose
τx = -3.72e-5 # m² s⁻², surface kinematic momentum flux
u_boundary_conditions = FieldBoundaryConditions(top = FluxBoundaryCondition(τx))

├── bottom: DefaultBoundaryCondition (FluxBoundaryCondition: Nothing)
├── top: FluxBoundaryCondition: -3.72e-5
└── immersed: DefaultBoundaryCondition (FluxBoundaryCondition: Nothing)
Wagner et al. (2021) impose a linear buoyancy gradient N²
at the bottom along with a weak, destabilizing flux of buoyancy at the surface to faciliate spin-up from rest.
Jᵇ = 2.307e-8 # m² s⁻³, surface buoyancy flux
N² = 1.936e-5 # s⁻², initial and bottom buoyancy gradient
b_boundary_conditions = FieldBoundaryConditions(top = FluxBoundaryCondition(Jᵇ),
bottom = GradientBoundaryCondition(N²))

├── bottom: GradientBoundaryCondition: 1.936e-5
├── top: FluxBoundaryCondition: 2.307e-8
└── immersed: DefaultBoundaryCondition (FluxBoundaryCondition: Nothing)
Note that Oceananigans uses "positive upward" conventions for all fluxes. In consequence, a negative flux at the surface drives positive velocities, and a positive flux of buoyancy drives cooling.
Coriolis parameter
Wagner et al. (2021) use
coriolis = FPlane(f=1e-4) # s⁻¹
FPlane{Float64}(f=0.0001)
which is typical for mid-latitudes on Earth.
Model instantiation
We are ready to build the model. We use a fifth-order Weighted Essentially Non-Oscillatory (WENO) advection scheme and the AnisotropicMinimumDissipation
model for large eddy simulation. Because our Stokes drift does not vary in $x, y$, we use UniformStokesDrift
, which expects Stokes drift functions of $z, t$ only.
model = NonhydrostaticModel(; grid, coriolis,
advection = WENO(order=9),
tracers = :b,
buoyancy = BuoyancyTracer(),
stokes_drift = UniformStokesDrift(∂z_uˢ=∂z_uˢ),
boundary_conditions = (u=u_boundary_conditions, b=b_boundary_conditions))

Initial conditions
We make use of random noise concentrated in the upper 4 meters for buoyancy and velocity initial conditions,
Ξ(z) = randn() * exp(z / 4)
Our initial condition for buoyancy consists of a surface mixed layer 33 m deep, a deep linear stratification, plus noise,
initial_mixed_layer_depth = 33 # m
stratification(z) = z < - initial_mixed_layer_depth ? N² * z : N² * (-initial_mixed_layer_depth)
bᵢ(x, y, z) = stratification(z) + 1e-1 * Ξ(z) * N² * model.grid.Lz
bᵢ (generic function with 1 method)
The simulation we reproduce from Wagner et al. (2021) is zero Lagrangian-mean velocity. This initial condition is consistent with a wavy, quiescent ocean suddenly impacted by winds. To this quiescent state we add noise scaled by the friction velocity to $u$ and $w$.
u★ = sqrt(abs(τx))
uᵢ(x, y, z) = u★ * 1e-1 * Ξ(z)
wᵢ(x, y, z) = u★ * 1e-1 * Ξ(z)
set!(model, u=uᵢ, w=wᵢ, b=bᵢ)

Making a neat movie
We look at the results by loading data from file with FieldTimeSeries
, and plotting vertical slices of $u$ and $w$, and a horizontal slice of $w$ to look for Langmuir cells.
using CairoMakie
time_series = (;
w = FieldTimeSeries("langmuir_turbulence_fields.jld2", "w"),
u = FieldTimeSeries("langmuir_turbulence_fields.jld2", "u"),
B = FieldTimeSeries("langmuir_turbulence_averages.jld2", "B"),
U = FieldTimeSeries("langmuir_turbulence_averages.jld2", "U"),
V = FieldTimeSeries("langmuir_turbulence_averages.jld2", "V"),
wu = FieldTimeSeries("langmuir_turbulence_averages.jld2", "wu"),
wv = FieldTimeSeries("langmuir_turbulence_averages.jld2", "wv"))
times = time_series.w.times
We are now ready to animate using Makie. We use Makie's Observable
to animate the data. To dive into how Observable
s work we refer to Makie.jl's Documentation.
n = Observable(1)
wxy_title = @lift string("w(x, y, t) at z=-8 m and t = ", prettytime(times[$n]))
wxz_title = @lift string("w(x, z, t) at y=0 m and t = ", prettytime(times[$n]))
uxz_title = @lift string("u(x, z, t) at y=0 m and t = ", prettytime(times[$n]))

And, finally, we record a movie.
