B-spline based finite-element method for the stationary quasi-geostrophic equations of the ocean

Abstract: We present a B-spline based conforming finite-element method of the streamfunction formulation of the stationary one-layer stationary quasi-geostrophic equations for the study of the large scale wind-driven ocean circulation. The method encompasses standard simplifications of these equations, in particular the linear Stommel and Stommel-Munk models. A variational form of the method is developed and its consistency is established. In this formulation Dirichlet boundary conditions are enforced only weakly and st… Show more

“…Several numerical tests, commonly employed in the geophysical literature, showed the accuracy of the finite element discretization and illustrated the theoretical estimates. Other recent developments of FEM for QGE include discontinuous Galerkin formulation using C 0 elements [62] and B-splines [69][70][71][72][73]. In particular, an adaptive refinement algorithm for B-splines finite element approximation was presented in [71] for the streamfunction formulation.…”

“…Due to the numerical success obtained with (6.3) (and spaces defined therein) in [Strazzullo et al, 2017], we shall continue to use (6.3) in this work. Stabilization procedures could also be used, such as in [Kim et al, 2015].…”
