COAWST Modeling System
Detailed Description
Overview of the Coupled Ocean-Atmosphere-Wave-Sediment Transport (COAWST) modeling system that couples model components representing different earth systems, such as the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model, the Simulating Waves Nearshore (SWAN) model, the Regional Ocean Modeling System (ROMS), and the Community Sediment Transport Modeling System (CSTMS). The models are coupled using the Model Coupling Toolkit (MCT).

DUNEX Modeling Waves, Water Levels, Sediment Transport, and Shoreline Change
Large, collaborative field experiments such as DUNEX leverage observations of the coastal ocean made by multiple academic, agency, and NGO teams, providing the opportunity to grasp a broader picture of the forces responsible for coastal change. Despite deployment of many instruments, it’s impossible to measure everything, everywhere, at all times. Numerical models that represent the physical...
