Phase Space Volume Conservation under Space and Time Discretization Schemes for the Shallow-Water Equations

Abstract Applying concepts of analytical mechanics to numerical discretization techniques for geophysical flows has recently been proposed. So far, mostly the role of the conservation laws for energy- and vorticity-based quantities has been discussed, but recently the conservation of phase space volume has also been addressed. This topic relates directly to questions in statistical fluid mechanics and in ensemble weather and climate forecasting. Here, phase space volume behavior of different spatial and temporal discretization schemes for the shallow-water equations on the sphere are investigated. Combinations of spatially symmetric and common temporal discretizations are compared. Furthermore, the relation between time reversibility and long-time volume averages is addressed.
