[MITgcm-devel] surface wave model package

[Dimitris Menemenlis]

Hi Matt, Chris and I briefly discussed adding the
University of Miami Wave Model (Donelan et al. 2012)
for the llc4320 simulations - but never got around to it.
Here is a presentation that makes use of this model:

Do you know what the differences are between SWAN and UMWM?

To your second question, I for one would find this super interested!
I would love to run the llc4320 with a wave model on top, as a
sensitivity experiment, to see how it modifies upper-ocean energetics.

Cheers,

Dimitris Menemenlis

This will likely be based on the SWAN model (http://swanmodel.sourceforge.net/ <http://swanmodel.sourceforge.net/>), but I am open to suggestions. My basic plan would be to follow the template of the sea ice package (and mypackage...). And, of course, I would ensure compatibility with TAF. I am wondering if anyone has an ever thought about this or tried it and has any advice for me?
