(11/01/2005) Use SWAN as a wave module in NearCoM

The NearCoM model is extended for far-field applications in the multi-scale modeling project in USGS. In the application to San Francisco Bight and Ocean Beach, NearCoM integrates three modules: 1) SWAN for wave generation and propagation; 2) SHORECIRC for prediction of tidal current, wind-induced current and wave-induced nearshore circulation; and 3) H-H type sediment module for prediction of sediment transport and morphology change.
