We present a high-order radial basis function finite difference (RBF-FD) framework for the solution of advection-diffusion equations on time-varying domains. Our framework is based on a generalization of the recently developed Overlapped RBF-FD method that utilizes a novel automatic procedure for computing RBF-FD weights on stencils in variable-sized regions around stencil centers. This procedure eliminates the overlap parameter $δ$, thereby enabling tuning-free assembly of RBF-FD differentiation matrices on moving domains. In addition, our framework utilizes a simple and efficient procedure for updating differentiation matrices on moving domains tiled by node sets of time-varying cardinality. Finally, advection-diffusion in time-varying domains is handled through a combination of rapid node set modification, a new high-order semi-Lagrangian method that utilizes the new tuning-free overlapped RBF-FD method, and a high-order time-integration method. The resulting framework has no tuning parameters and has $O(N \log N)$ time complexity. We demonstrate high-orders of convergence for advection-diffusion equations on time-varying 2D and 3D domains for both small and large Peclet numbers. We also present timings that verify our complexity estimates. Finally, we utilize our method to solve a coupled 3D problem motivated by models of platelet aggregation and coagulation, once again demonstrating high-order convergence rates on a moving domain.
