Process

Describe processes represented by the model Wind waves are computed by wave action propagation, tidal current are computed with a quasi static approximation. Bottom shaer stress, computed from a combination ot the two, induces bottom erosion. Suspended sediment are advected / diffused by tidal current, and eventually sedimented back. A different erosional process are used where waves break on a vertical obstacle (the vertical scarp at the marsh boundary). Vegetation is computed as a function of the ground elevation respect to the mean tidal level. Vegetation change bottom erodability and the sediment trapping.
Describe key physical parameters and equations In each cell and at each time step the following are computed: bottom elevation, above-ground vegetation, water level, wave height, tidal current velocity, bottom shear stress, and suspended sediment concentration.
Describe length scale and resolution constraints Transect length about 500 m
Describe time scale and resolution constraints Time resolution 30 min, simualtion length about 100 years.
