### Author: Laura Lavaud ([e-mail] or [e-mail]) Date: 11/02/2022 Purpose: This repository provides the field observations presented in the paper referred below Reference: Lavaud, L., Bertin, X., Martins, K., Pezerat, M., Coulombier, T., Dausse, D. (2022). Wave dissipation and mean circulation on a shore platform under storm wave conditions. Submitted to Journal of Geophysical Research-Earth Surface ### * The directory storm_conditions is relative to the field campaign conducted in storm conditions, it includes: (1) Wave bulk parameters, computed as described in the paper for the 8 sensors used in this study: (SENSOR_Date_WDepth_Hm0_Tm02_Tpc_Fmin_Fmax.dat files) : the offshore ADCP 600 kHz and PT2, the intertidal PT4, 5, 6, 8, 9 and 10. The field "WDepth" in the title of each file corresponds to the mean water depth above the seabed (i.e. corrected from sensor's elevation above the bed), Hm0 is the significant wave height, Tm02 the mean wave period and Tpc the continuous peak period. The fields "Fmin" and "Fmax" are the boundaries for the integration of the wave energy frequency spectra performed to compute the wave bulk parameters. (2) The file ADV7_Date_WDepth_horizontal_current_ENU_20minburst.dat contains the WDepth and the horizontal components of the velocity at the ADV in the ENU frame, averaged over bursts of 20 minutes. (3) The file sensors_coordinates_storm_cond.dat gathers the coordinates and the NGF (IGN69) elevation of the seabed at the location of each sensor. * The directory fair_weather_conditions is relative to the field campaign conducted in fair weather conditions, it includes: (1) Wave bulk parameters, computed for the 6 sensors used in this study (SENSOR_Date_WDepth_Hm0_Tm02_Tp_Fmin0pt04_Fmax0pt25.dat files) : the intertidal ADCP 2MHz, PT0, PT1, ADV, PT2 and PT3. (2) The file sensors_coordinates_fairweather_cond.dat gathers the coordinates of each sensor. * The directory model_input_files includes the files used to run the simulations presented in this study: (1) The SCHISM and WWM input files (param.nml and wwminput.nml) and the vertical grid (vgrid.in) (2) The file "ww3.bnd_spec_20200120_20200229.nc" which corresponds to directional wave energy spectra used to force WWM at the open boundary of the computational grid. These spectra were computed from a North Atlantic application of Wavewatch III model forced by CFSR wind fields.
