|
Process
| Describe processes represented by the model
|
NearCoM predicts surface waves and wave-induced nearshore processes such as nearshore circulation, sediment transport and morphological changes.
|
| Describe key physical parameters and equations
|
Wave equations, wave-averaged circulation equations and equations for bedload and suspended-load sediment transport.
|
| Describe length scale and resolution constraints
|
Nearshore regions from shoreline to 10 meter water depth. Model resolution depends on specific modules.
|
| Describe time scale and resolution constraints
|
Hours to months.
|
| Describe any numerical limitations and issues
|
Wave modules have an automatic grid refinement feature. Circulation modules have two kinds: CFL limited and CFL-free schemes.
|
