考虑海气耦合的海洋风环境中-微尺度数值模拟

Meso-microscale numerical simulation in marine wind environments considering air-sea coupling

  • 摘要: 独立中尺度数值天气预报模式在输出风速特征时,忽略了波浪传播和海流演变引起的海表变形对三维风场湍流结构的调制作用,且无法提供秒级分辨率的脉动风速。针对这一问题,本文构建了一种基于 WRF-SWAN-ROMS-LES 的中/小尺度多层嵌套风-浪-流数值模拟框架。利用该方法,对比分析了中尺度海气耦合的大气模式与独立大气模式在风速模拟上的差异,并验证了微尺度大涡模拟在再现湍流脉动方面的有效性。结果表明,风-浪-流耦合模型在刻画海上风速演变过程中具有更高的精度:在 38 m 高度处,相较于独立大气模式,耦合海气模式与雷达监测值的标准差降低了 8.8%。在微尺度模拟中,通过引入中尺度大气速度、位温和压力等三维时空分布信息驱动了小尺度大涡模拟,其输出结果整体位于 LES 脉动风速曲线的中间区域,并能够保持秒级的高频脉动特征。

     

    Abstract: Standalone mesoscale numerical weather prediction models often neglect two key aspects when simulating wind speed: first, the influence of sea surface changes due to wave propagation and current evolution on wind turbulence; second, the ability to provide second-scale fluctuating wind speeds. To address these limitations, this study develops a multi-scale nested wind-wave-current numerical simulation framework based on WRF-SWAN-ROMS-LES. Using this approach, we compared and analyzed the differences in wind speed simulation between a coupled air-sea mesoscale atmospheric model and a standalone atmospheric model. The effectiveness of microscale large-eddy simulation (LES) in reproducing turbulent fluctuations is also verified. Results show that the wind-wave-current coupled model achieves higher accuracy in characterizing offshore wind speed evolution. Specifically, at a height of 38 m, the standard deviation between the coupled model and radar observations is 8.8% lower compared to the standalone atmospheric model. In the microscale simulation, the introduction of three-dimensional spatiotemporal information such as mesoscale atmospheric velocity, potential temperature, and pressure successfully drives the small-scale large-eddy simulation. The output consistently lies within the central region of the LES fluctuating wind speed curve while maintaining second-scale high-frequency fluctuation characteristics.
