摘要
Three-dimensional algorithms for the numerical computation of flows caused by tides or meteorological forcing are developed for four of Arakawa's spatial grid types using a spectral method in the vertical dimension. Three of the grids, in which the velocity components are computed at the same grid points, offer potential advantages over the commonly used C-grid. The computed results from the four grids are compared for three test problems based on the linearized hydrodynamical equations. It is concluded that the B-grid provides a viable alternative to the C-grid, with significant advantages when a spectral method is used.
