الوصف: Leonard’s widely used QUICK advection scheme is, like the Bryan–Cox–Semtner ocean model, based on a control volume form of the advection equation. Unfortunately, in its normal form it cannot be used with the leapfrog–Euler forward time-stepping schemes used by the ocean model. Farrow and Stevens overcame the problem by implementing a predictor–corrector time-stepping scheme, but this is computationally expensive to run. The present paper shows that the problem can be overcome by splitting the QUICK operator into an O(δx2) advective term and a velocity dependent biharmonic diffusion term. These can then be time-stepped using the combined leapfrog and Euler forward schemes of the Bryan–Cox–Semtner ocean model, leading to a significant increase in model efficiency. A small change in the advection operator coefficients may also be made leading to O(δx4) accuracy. Tests of the improved schemes are carried out making use of a global eddy-permitting ocean model. Results are presented from cases where th...
