Finite Volume Coastal Ocean Model (FVCOM) 3D Hydrodynamic Model Comparison

PDF Version Also Available for Download.

Description

This document compares the performance of various hydrodynamic models on a common benchmark problem, The Corpus Christi Bay benchmark, designed by Texas Water Development Board (TWDB). The benchmark problem includes a data-set for calibration of the model and another data-set for verification of the model. The application of the Finite-Volume Coastal Ocean Model (FVCOM) to this benchmark problem enabled TWDB to evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of the model for use in predicting the three-dimensional circulation and salinity transport in bay and estuary systems on the Texas coast. (p. 2).
