Description of coastline variations in an ocean general circulation model

A wetting and drying algorithm is considered and implemented in a three-dimensional sigma– z coordinate model of ocean thermo- and hydrodynamics. The algorithm is tested in two idealized experiments simulating the run-up of a tidal wave on the coast and in a realistic experiment simulating the evolu...

Summary:A wetting and drying algorithm is considered and implemented in a three-dimensional sigma– z coordinate model of ocean thermo- and hydrodynamics. The algorithm is tested in two idealized experiments simulating the run-up of a tidal wave on the coast and in a realistic experiment simulating the evolution of the Caspian Sea coastline in the 20th century.
