Development of Improved Algorithms and Multiscale Modeling Capability with SUNTANS

Abstract

The long-term goal is to develop a nonhydrostatic, parallel ocean simulation tool that is capable of simulating processes on a wide range of scales through use of accurate numerical methods and highperformance computational algorithms. The tool will be applied to study highly nonlinear internal waves in coastal domains to develop an improved understanding of mechanisms that govern their generation, propagation, and dissipation.
