LONG-TERM GOALS This project is driven by the desire to simulate wave-driven process in large domains with fineresolution, while including tide, river, and wind forcings that exist across multiple orders of magnitudes of spatial scales. We aim to explicitly couple large-scale flow models, such as Delft3D, with our developed Boussinesq-type model. The vision of this project is to develop an operational tool for the prediction of O(1 m) resolution hydrodynamics in the coastal zone. OBJECTIVES The
