Summary Contact Technical specs In/Output Process Testing Other Component info Also known as Model type Single Model part of larger framework Note on status model Date note status model Incorporated models or components: Spatial dimensions Spatial extent Point-Based Model domain One-line model description Calculate wave-generated bottom orbital velocities from surface wave parameters Extended model description Calculate wave-generated bottom orbital velocities from measured surface wave parameters. Also permits calculation of surface wave spectra from wind conditions, from which bottom orbital velocities can be determined.

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 https://github.com/csdms-contrib/oceanwaves Program license type Other Program license type other MIT Memory requirements -- Typical run time -- Describe input parameters Surface wave height and period or surface winds as well as water depth. Input format ASCII Other input format Describe output parameters Bottom wave orbital velocity. Also surface wave conditions if calculated from wind speed. Output format ASCII Other output format 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 Describe processes represented by the model Bottom orbital velocity is calculated from surface wave conditions using linear wave theory. A spectral approach is used. If input wave data are just wave height and period, a spectrum is estimated based on those as described in Wiberg and Sherwood 2008. Several spectral representations are available, and spectra can be estimated based on wind speed if surface wave conditions are unknown. Describe key physical parameters and equations See Wiberg and Sherwood 2008, Computers & Geosciences 34: 1243-1262 for key equations. Describe length scale and resolution constraints This is a point model and not dependent on length scale or resolution. Describe time scale and resolution constraints This is a point model and not dependent on time scale or resolution. Describe any numerical limitations and issues The calculations assume the waves are wind waves with periods in the range of 0-~30 s. If the waves are much larger or produced by a different mechanism, the calculations are not likely to be accurate.
