Description
The
Vortex Force
formulation of Uchiyama et al. (2010) has been added to the ROMS nonlinear kernel, and it is based on COAWST implementation and improvements (Kumar et al., 2012). It can be used in shallow coastal applications to allow the effect of waves on current and vice versa.Issue(s) addressed:
None.
Impact:
It is a new capability in ROMS.
