Identify Monitoring Stations
A convenient point and click capability is available in SMS for the user to
select monitoring stations. Then, monitoring station locations are saved in the
STWAVE input file project.std as I- and J-grid-cell indices (Chapter 3,
"Model Parameters"). After running the model, wave spectra for each
monitoring station are written to the STWAVE output file project.obs
(Chapter 4, "Selected Wave Spectra"). Also, model results for wave parameters
Hmo, Tp, and mean wave direction, αm, are written to the STWAVE output file
selhts for each monitoring station.
