This talk will describe a new discontinuous Galerkin model that we've developed for use in many geophysical fluid dynamics including: 1) the atmosphere and 2) coastal ocean; we will focus on the coastal ocean in this talk. The strengths of this model include: 1) arbitrarily high-order spatial discretization via the discontinuous Galerkin method,...

Reflected Brownian motion (RBM) in a wedge is a 2-dimensional stochastic process $Z$ whose state space in $\mathbb{R}^2$ is given in polar coordinates by $S=\{(r,\theta): r \geq 0, 0 \leq \theta \leq \xi\}$ for some $0 < \xi < 2 \pi$. Let $\alpha= (\theta_1+\theta_2)/\xi$, where $-\pi/2 < \theta_1,\theta_2 < \pi/2$ are the directions of reflecti...
