Introduction

WAVEWATCH III ^TM Questionnaire
Contact Information
| Model: | WAVEWATCH III ^TM |
| Contact person: | Hendrik Tolman (model developer) |
| Institute: | NOAA/NCEP |
| City: | Camp Springs, Maryland |
| Country: | USA |
| Email: | Hendrik.tolman@NOAA.gov |
| 2nd person involved: | -- |
| 3rd person involved: | -- |
Model description
| Model type: | Spectral wind wave model for the coastal/marine domain |
| Description: | Third generation random phase spectral wave model, including shallow water physcis. |
Technical information
| Supported platforms: | UNIX, Linux |
| Programming language: | Fortran77, Fortran90, Matlab |
| Model was developed started from: | 1992 and development still takes place |
| To what degree will the model become available: | As code |
| Current license type: | -- |
| Memory requirements: | -- |
| Typical run time: | -- |
Input / Output description
| Input parameters: | wind at 10m, air-sea temperature difference, ice concentration, curents and water levels (bathymetry) |
| Input format: | ASCII & Binary |
| Output parameters: | From wave heights to spectral data, see manual |
| Output format: | ASCII & Binary |
| Post-processing software (if needed): | Matlab and other possible but not necessary |
| Visualization software (if needed): | Matlab and GrADS |
Process description
| Processes represented by model: | Evolution of wind wave spectra under influence of wind, breaking, nonlinear interactions, bottom interaction (including shoalng and refraction), currents, water level changes and ice concentrsations. No diffraction. |
| Key physical parameters & equations: | Spectral action balance equation. |
| Length scale & resolution constraints: | Theoretically length scale larger than longest wave length (10km), practically highest resolution sub km. Largest scales should correspond to spatial scales of forcing. |
| Time scale & resolution constraints: | Time steps from seconds to 1h. Time length of runs can be up to years. |
| Numerical limitations and issues : | Explicit schemes make high resolution runs expensive. |
Testing
| Available calibration data sets: | Separate publications. |
| Available test data sets: | ONR test bed and others. |
| Ideal data for testing: | Field data should be used for testing. Lab data has incosistent scaling between gravity and capilary waves. |
User groups
| Currently or plans for collaborating with: | Many present contributors to code. Are considering user groups. WISE has been acting as informal in person only user group. |
Documentation
| Key papers of the model: | See WAVEWATCH ^TM website |
| Is there a manual available: | Yes |
| Model website if any: | http://polar.ncep.noaa.gov/waves |
