Abstract

Development of a two-dimensional model to hindcast spectral wave parameters in an estuary with tidal flats on the basis of bottomtopography, current and wind data. Diffraction-like propagation has been implemented and tested. Tests indicate that this type of propagation cannot.be used for most applications. Wave growth and decay has been implemented and tested. The results are satisfactory. The input program has been finalized. The output program has been implemented and is being tested.
