Ocean Modeling Discussion

All of those things were essentially what I was getting at. That actually answers my question pretty explicitly, thanks John!

Are wave enhanced currents calculated in ROMS by simply forcing with waves, or are there more complicated steps to turn this feature on?

I have a realistic model setup and would like to add in wave forcing for sediment resuspension and transport.

I figured it out, I was using the ana_sediment from the User folder so there were ??? instead of values, got it to compile when i used the settings from sed_test.

Thanks!

I'm trying to turn on the sediment transport features with the newest version of ROMS and am running into problems compiling with ANA_SEDIMENT as my initial sediment conditions. I'm using these options: #define SSW_BBL #ifdef SSW_BBL #define SSW_CALC_ZNOT #define SSW_CALC_UB #endif #define SEDIMENT ...

Added a & at the end of line 256 in wrt_tides.F and compiled okay.

Not sure if this is critical or not but got this error when compiling PGF90-S-0155-Unexpected continuation (wrt_tides.f90: 257) PGF90-S-0023-Syntax error - unbalanced parentheses (wrt_tides.f90: 256) 0 inform, 0 warnings, 2 severes, 0 fatal for wrt_tides make: *** [/home/tnmiles/ROMS/projects/storms ...

Is there a method for directly comparing ROMS zeta at a coastal boundary to a NOAA tidal-record/water-level observation?

Got it, thanks!

I'm extracting data on s-levels but want to know what depths the points in each of these levels are associated with as a 2-d grid. Would I have to calculate this using the stretching parameter, or is there an easy way to output this? I'm currently using roms_sview to get each levels u and v data ...
