SMS:CMS-Wave Monitoring Station Output File
From XMS Wiki
Jump to navigationJump to search
CMS-Wave can include monitoring stations that will extract the calculated data values, including the wave height, period and direction. The extracted values are stored in the CMS-Wave monitoring station output file (selhts.out) generated during the model run. This file will only be created if a monitoring station data is specified in the control file. In SMS, monitoring stations are created as a cell attribute in the Cartesian grid.
File Format
The selhts.out file uses a fifteen column format with values described in the table below:
Column Number Value 1 Spectrum label (or time stamp) 2 I index in Cartesian (i,j) or ij index in quadtree mesh 3 J index in Cartesian (i,j) or 0 (dummy) in quadtree mesh 4 Significant wave height (meters) 5 Spectral peak wave period (seconds) 6 Mean wave direction (degrees, local coordinate system) 7 Swell height (meters) 8 Swell wave period (seconds) 9 Swell direction (degrees) 10 Local-generated wave height (meters) 11 Local-generated wave period (seconds) 12 local-generated wave direction (degrees) 13 Wave breaking index (non-zero for breaking) 14 Max water elevation mark (meters), include wave run-up if calculated 15 Flow discharge rate (m*m/sec) at structure cells if calculated
