Questions on wave boundary forcing

[tc-ecoast]

Hi all,

Does XBGPU support spatially varying wave forcing? It doesn't appear so but I wanted to double check. For example the XBeach format is to specify a 'loclist.txt' file that contains the names of multiple input spectrum files.

Is wavebndtype=5 implemented/tested within the model? And what type of file format would be input? I tried a SWAN spectrum text file which didn't work.

Thanks,
Ted

Kia ora Ted,
You are right we don't support variable wave energy on that boundary.
About the type 5 boundary. I didn't spend a lot of time making the Swan boundary very robust. did you get an error message? Otherwise if you could make a simple example I could try to debug the issue.
