We describe a compatible finite element discretisation for the shallow water equations on the rotating sphere, concentrating on integrating consistent upwind stabilisation into the framework. Although the prognostic variables are velocity and layer depth, the discretisation has a diagnostic potential vorticity that satisfies a stable upwinded advection equation through a Taylor-Galerkin scheme; this provides a mechanism for dissipating enstrophy at the gridscale whilst retaining optimal order consistency. We also use upwind discontinuous Galerkin schemes for the transport of layer depth. These transport schemes are incorporated into a semi-implicit formulation that is facilitated by a hybridisation method for solving the resulting mixed Helmholtz equation. We illustrate our discretisation with some standard rotating sphere test problems.

We describe discretisations of the shallow water equations on the sphere using the framework of finite element exterior calculus, which are extensions of the mimetic finite difference framework presented in Ringler, Thuburn, Klemp, and Skamarock (Jou rnal of Computational Physics, 2010). The exterior calculus notation provides a guide to which finite element spaces should be used for which physical variables, and unifies a number of desirable properties. We present two formulations: a ``primal formulation in which the finite element spaces are defined on a single mesh, and a ``primal-dual formulation in which finite element spaces on a dual mesh are also used. Both formulations have velocity and layer depth as prognostic variables, but the exterior calculus framework leads to a conserved diagnostic potential vorticity. In both formulations we show how to construct discretisations that have mass-consistent (constant potential vorticity stays constant), stable and oscillation-free potential vorticity advection.
This paper develops the high-order accurate entropy stable (ES) finite difference schemes for the shallow water magnetohydrodynamic (SWMHD) equations.They are built on the numerical approximation of the modified SWMHD equations with the Janhunen sour ce term. First, the second-order accurate well-balanced semi-discrete entropy conservative (EC) schemes are constructed, satisfying the entropy identity for the given convex entropy function and preserving the steady states of the lake at rest (with zero magnetic field). The key is to match both discretizations for the fluxes and the non-flat river bed bottom and Janhunen source terms, and to find the affordable EC fluxes of the second-order EC schemes. Next, by using the second-order EC schemes as building block, high-order accurate well-balanced semi-discrete EC schemes are proposed. Then, the high-order accurate well-balanced semi-discrete ES schemes %satisfying the entropy inequality are derived by adding a suitable dissipation term to the EC scheme with the WENO reconstruction of the scaled entropy variables in order to suppress the numerical oscillations of the EC schemes. After that, the semi-discrete schemes are integrated in time by using the high-order strong stability preserving explicit Runge-Kutta schemes to obtain the fully-discrete high-order well-balanced schemes. The ES property of the Lax-Friedrichs flux is also proved and then the positivity-preserving ES schemes are studied by using the positivity-preserving flux limiter. Finally, extensive numerical tests are conducted to validate the accuracy, the well-balanced, ES and positivity-preserving properties, and the ability to capture discontinuities of our schemes.
In this paper, high order semi-implicit well-balanced and asymptotic preserving finite difference WENO schemes are proposed for the shallow water equations with a non-flat bottom topography. We consider the Froude number ranging from O(1) to 0, which in the zero Froude limit becomes the lake equations for balanced flow without gravity waves. We apply a well-balanced finite difference WENO reconstruction, coupled with a stiffly accurate implicit-explicit (IMEX) Runge-Kutta time discretization. The resulting semi-implicit scheme can be shown to be well-balanced, asymptotic preserving (AP) and asymptotically accurate (AA) at the same time. Both one- and two-dimensional numerical results are provided to demonstrate the high order accuracy, AP property and good performance of the proposed methods in capturing small perturbations of steady state solutions.
This note aims at demonstrating the advantage of moving-water well-balanced schemes over still-water well-balanced schemes for the shallow water equations. We concentrate on numerical examples with solutions near a moving-water equilibrium. For such examples, still-water well-balanced methods are not capable of capturing the small perturbations of the moving-water equilibrium and may generate significant spurious oscillations, unless an extremely refined mesh is used. On the other hand, moving- water well-balanced methods perform well in these tests. The numerical examples in this note clearly demonstrate the importance of utilizing moving-water well-balanced methods for solutions near a moving-water equilibrium.
The paper develops high order accurate Runge-Kutta discontinuous local evolution Galerkin (RKDLEG) methods on the cubed-sphere grid for the shallow water equations (SWEs). Instead of using the dimensional splitting method or solving one-dimensional R iemann problem in the direction normal to the cell interface, the RKDLEG methods are built on genuinely multi-dimensional approximate local evolution operator of the locally linearized SWEs on a sphere by considering all bicharacteristic directions. Several numerical experiments are conducted to demonstrate the accuracy and performance of our RKDLEG methods, in comparison to the Runge-Kutta discontinuous Galerkin method with Godunovs flux etc.
