Describe processes represented by the model
GENESIS was designed to describe long-term trends of the beach plan shape in the course of its approach to an equilibrium form. The shoreline change model best calculates shoreline movement in transition from one equilibrium state to another. This change is usually caused by a notable pertubation, for example, jetty construction at a harbor or inlet, or placement of beach nourishment material.
Describe key physical parameters and equations
Breaking wave conditions are estimated from input wave information using linear wave theory. Longshore sand transport rates are estimated using a modified version of the CERC equation and the equation governing shoreline change is formulated by conservation of sand volume.
Describe length scale and resolution constraints
The longshore extent of the modeled reach can range from less than 1 mile to 10's of miles.
Describe time scale and resolution constraints
GENESIS is a long-term shoreline evolution model and is best applied to estimate shoreline change over time periods of 1 year to 10's of years.
Describe any numerical limitations and issues
Does not consider influence of cross-shore sand transport, not intended for short-term storm-induced shoreline change. No wave reflection from structures. No direct provision for changing tide level.
Describe available calibration data sets
No specific calibration data sets available. GENESIS has enjoyed many practical applications within the engineering and scientific community, results routinely published in proceedings of coastal conferences.
