Summary Also known as Model type Single Model part of larger framework Note on status model Date note status model Technical specs Supported platforms Unix, Linux, Mac OS, Windows Other platform Programming language Matlab Other program language Code optimized Multiple processors implemented Nr of distributed processors Nr of shared processors Start year development 2000 Does model development still take place? Yes If above answer is no, provide end year model development Code development status When did you indicate the 'code development status'? Model availability As code Source code availability (Or provide future intension) Through CSDMS repository Source web address Source csdms web address Program license type Other Program license type other -- Memory requirements -- Typical run time -- In/Output Describe input parameters Main inputs are bathymetry, riverine sediment discharge time-series, and ambient wave and current time-series. Critical velocity for sea bed erosion, bottom drag coefficient and critical bulk Richardson number can also be adjusted. Input format ASCII Other input format matlab formats Describe output parameters Gravity flow velocity, Depth-integrated sediment load, down-slope sediment flux, flux convergence or divergence, erosion or deposition rate. Output format ASCII Other output format matlab formats Pre-processing software needed? No Describe pre-processing software Post-processing software needed? No Describe post-processing software Visualization software needed? No If above answer is yes Other visualization software Process Describe processes represented by the model See Friedrichs & Scully, 2007. Continental Shelf Research, 27: 322-337 and references within. Describe key physical parameters and equations See Friedrichs & Scully, 2007. Continental Shelf Research, 27: 322-337 and references within. Describe length scale and resolution constraints -- Describe time scale and resolution constraints -- Describe any numerical limitations and issues -- Testing Describe available calibration data sets See Friedrichs & Scully, 2007. Continental Shelf Research, 27: 322-337 and references within. Upload calibration data sets if available: Describe available test data sets -- Upload test data sets if available: Describe ideal data for testing -- Other Do you have current or future plans for collaborating with other researchers? Not presently. Is there a manual available? No Upload manual if available: Model website if any Model forum / discussion board Comments Introduction History Papers Issues Help You will find the following folders when downloading the source code: A folder called "forcing" which contains the forcing and bathymetry files. A folder called "plotting" which contains a program for plotting the predicted deposition ("plot_wp.m") as well as shoreline data to make the plot pretty. A manuscript "Ma_Friedrichs_etal_2009_MarGeol_inprep_29Jul.pdf" that describes the latest application of this version of the model. To run the model, simply put all the files in the same directory, set that directory as the default directory for Matlab, and type "WSGFAM_131" in the MatLab Command Window. To plot the output, type "plot_wp". The model, which simulates several months of deposition on the Waiapu New Zealand shelf, takes about 15 minutes to run on a laptop.
