Abstract
The impact of inter-model coupling on regional scale numerical predictions of wind-waves, marine circulation, and sediment transport is investigated. This is done using the COupled MArine Prediction System (COMAPS), which consists of parallel-processing versions of the CH3D-SED circulation and sediment transport model, the WAM wind-wave model, and the WCBL bottom boundary layer model. COMAPS includes physics couplings between wave and current motions at the water surface and wave, current, and sediment motions at the marine bed. Adriatic Sea hindcasts are discussed. These indicate that the coupling mechanisms have significant impacts on coastal water levels, currents, and wave heights, as well as basin-wide sediment transport.
