Property:Describe length scale and resolution
From CSDMS
This is a property of type Text.
R
Code has been most commonly run for 10x5 m cells (with the long axis parallel to flow) and domain size of 1.27 x 1.86 km. Other scales are possible, but adding additional cells will slow down processing. This model is only designed to simulate mean flows; resolution of fine turbulence structure is not possible with the code. +
A
Computer memory. +
G
Constraints:
* Cell length - 10 - 100 meters
* Cell height - 0.01 - 0.5 meters +
B
Cross-shore transect length can extend 10's of km from the ocean barrier shoreface into the mainland. Grid resolution on the barrier is 10 m, and 1 m spacing from the back-barrier marsh to the mainland. +
C
Currently there are only initial data sets for 10x15 degrees longitude and latitude. This model is meant for global scale dynamics. +
W
Currently, 4x5 degree, with 66 vertical levels up to 140 km. Resolution can be increased if neccessary +
A
G
L
P
Domain should be 10s of Kms in x and y. Cell spacing should be 10s of meters. +
F
Domain should be large enough to resolve the bottom boundary layer, meanwhile, the grid resolution should be fine enough to resolve all the essential turbulence scales. +
K
Domain size is 3 km by 3 km, grid cell is 5 m by 5m. +
C
Drainage basin size controls the length of the model runs. Cell size should not be increased to shorten model runs. +
