Thursday, August 16.

0900: Discussion on steps to increase utilization of field data in model development and testing. Can we design a testing program to subject models to in the short term (as a next year priority)? - Svendsen?

1000: Discussion: Identifying end-users and collaborators who should become involved in the project. - Kirby?

1030: Break

1100: Discussion of development of standards and documentation for program elements and module interfaces. What is being developed at the Delaware end? Where do others fit in, and how do we document the system so that external developers can use it? - Kirby

1200: Lunch

1300: Discussion of needed advances in physical basis for model:

1. Turbulence and parameterizations inside and outside the surfzone.

2. Spatial variation in friction factor and dependence on hydrodynamics and small scale morphology - Thornton?

3. Topography and current variability - evidence from model results - Svendsen?

4. Boundary conditions, nested and unnested applications

Friday, August 17.

0900: Working groups meet as needed.

Ref/dif revisions - At some point, Kirby and Kaihatu and any other interested parties need to meet to try and resolve discrepancies in various ref/dif codes prior to the release of a new set of documentation and corrected code.
