COAWST zeta output in VF mode

#1 Unread post by IBH123 »

Hi everyone:

Just a simple question related to the 'zeta' output from COAWST. I'm coupling it with wave using Vortex force. My question is, is it the exact surface boundary position, that has count-in the quasi-static surface waterlevel adjustment 'zetaw' or it hasn't?

Thank you.

from my understanding, the output 'zeta' does not include zetaw, bh, or qsp. Those terms are separate, but i have not looked at Kumar's paper in a long time. Suggest you look here for more reference. I can spend some time to look deeper at some point in the future.
