Sliding or Stumbling on the Staircase: Numerics of Ocean Circulation Along Piecewise‐Constant Coastlines

Coastlines in most ocean general circulation models are piecewise constant. Accurate representation of boundary currents along staircase‐like coastlines is a long‐standing issue in ocean modeling. Pioneering work by Adcroft and Marshall (1998, https://doi.org/10.3402/tellusa.v50i1.14514) revealed th...
