Module ocean_wave_mod

Contact:  M. Schmidt

OVERVIEW

Idealized wave model for delivering wave number and wave height for coupled current-wave action on sediment.

This idealized wave model delivers wave number and wave height for calculation of the coupled current-wave action on sediment. Swell is not included in this model. All fields are defined at tracer grid, for later use in sediment dynamics in such modules as ocean_shared/generic_tracers/generic_ERGOM.F90

PUBLIC ROUTINES

  1. ocean_wave_init

    DESCRIPTION
    Initialize the wave module


  2. ocean_wave_model

    DESCRIPTION
    time step the wave model


  3. ocean_wave_prop

    DESCRIPTION
    wave propagation


  4. ocean_wave_diag

    DESCRIPTION
    wave diagnostics


  5. ocean_wave_filter

    DESCRIPTION
    wave filter


  6. read_wave

    DESCRIPTION
    Read wave restart information.


  7. ocean_wave_restart

    DESCRIPTION
    Save wave restart information.


  8. ocean_wave_end

    DESCRIPTION
    Write out external mode fields to restart file.


  9. wave_chksum

    DESCRIPTION
    Compute checksum for external mode fields.


  10. wave_model_is_initialised

    use ocean_wave_mod, only: wave_model_is_initialised if (wave_model_is_initialised() ) then
    DESCRIPTION
    This function returns .true. if the wave model is initialised It is needed, because the wave model may be initialised after some module that requires a wave model


    INPUT
        No inputs needed.
       []

    OUTPUT
        This function returns a logical.
       [logical]
