WAVEWATCH III™ version (6.07) is the new public version of the state-of-the-art wave modeling framework, distributed via GitHub. The following are new features added and code-structure modifications made in WAVEWATCH III 6.07 since the previous model release (version 5.16).

  • Preparing for next model version, adding optional instrumentation to code for profiling of memory use (model version 6.00),
  • Separates Stokes drift spectrum calculation (US3D) from OUTG and provides new option to output surface Stokes drift partitioned into run-time defined frequencies (USSP) (model version 6.01),
  • Adds a new module for ESMF interface (model version 6.02),
  • Adds a capability to update restart file’s total energy based on independent significant wave height analysis (model version 6.03),
  • Adds domain decomposition for unstructured implicit schemes using PDLIB (Parallel Domain Decomposition Library) and ParMetis (model version 6.04),
  • Updates the namelist options for the following programs: ww3 ounf, ww3 ounp, ww3 trnc, ww3 bounc, and ww3 shel (model version 6.05),
  • Adding IC5 (the extended FS model) as a sea ice source term option (model version 6.06),
  • Other additions include updates on source term parameterizations such IC2, IS2, ST4, REF1.
