Inclusion of Surface Topography into the Vector Vorticity Equation Model (VVM)
Surface topography is implemented into the vector vorticity equation model with a block representation of mountains in the height coordinate. The kinematic boundary conditions at the surface are satisfied with a proper computational boundary condition for vorticity. This approach has been tested in...
