26/01/2008 AEMET, Agencia Estatal de Meteorología High resolution unstructured grid for wave forecasting at coastal areas SUMMARY - State-of-the-art of wave models. - Nesting scheme – from Ocean to Strait. - Fractional steps. - Network of forecasting modules. - SWAN in the Strait. - Unstructured grid for coastal areas. - Buoy observations vs model forecasts.

3 3 High resolution unstructured grid for wave forecasting at coastal areas

4 4 Regional WW ’ and SWAN in the strait High resolution unstructured grid for wave forecasting at coastal areas Atlantic nesting: ' --- regional Regional nesting South + East: 3-1.5'---SWAN strait area of study

5 High resolution unstructured grid for wave forecasting at coastal areas Flow unstabilities if Courant-Friedrichs-Levi condition is not met: Δt>Δx/c. Spatial propagation time step should be: Δtp< Δx/cg =123766* Δx(º)*cos(latmax)*fmin Iberia---- Δx=1’, latmax=37º, fmin=0.041Hz -> Δtp=80 s … too much computing time! Fractional steps philosophy: WW3 alternates calculations among spatial and spectral propagations and source terms, so Δtp ≤ 100 s with higher time steps... WHAT'S THE HIGHEST TIME STEP WITHOUT UNSTABILITY?
