Introduction

Warning: This page is under construction, some links are not available yet.

FES2012 is the last version of the FES (Finite Element Solution) tide model developed in 2012. A new database was developed based on this model containing 32 tidal constituents distributed on 1/16° grids (amplitude and phase). More information can be found at: [1]. This database was rearranged in a HDF5 file ready to use in MOHID. Fes2012 tidal components can be used in MOHID by using a method described in the next sub sections.

Quick start

Get the input file with tidal components here: [2]. (link will be available soon)

Mohid-tide Fes2012

Prepare the input file for tides. If you use Mohid GUI, this file is defined in the interface as explained here: [3]. If you use MOHID studio, you only need to prepare a file Tide_*.dat (where * is the simulation number), with the content of the sample input file described in the next section. Finally, in the Hydrodynamic input file, you should set TIDE : 1;

Here's what the input file should look like:

• Sample input:
