  • SMS is a graphical interface that supports many numeric models
  • The models were developed by government or private entities
  • Hydrodynamic models compute water surface elevations and velocities
  • Wave models compute wave characteristics
  • GenCade is a shoreline model that predicts how the coastline will move based upon long term wave information
  • PTM tracks particle positions through time based upon hydrodynamics and wave effects
