The Continued Development of the Third-generation Shallow Water Wave Model SWAN (original) (raw)

The paper discusses the ongoing development, validation, and operational support of the Third-generation Shallow Water Wave Model (SWAN). It emphasizes a community-driven approach involving collaboration among wave modelers, particularly through the WISE group, and outlines the key changes and enhancements made to the model since 1992. The model's advancements include improved wave propagation equations, the ability to reflect waves against obstacles, and integration with other models like WAVEWATCH III.
