Figtjre 1.— Real and imaginary parts of the four coefficients (A, B, C, J) of equations (9) and (17) as functions of Ekman number "t" or depth. These equations involve only first derivatives with respect to time. The six subscripted functions (A, B, C) are dependent only on depth when eddy viscosity and bottom slip coefficients are specified; their form is given in figure 1. The numerical scheme for (10) used in this study is given in Appendix II. An heuristic approach to form values for the eddy viscosity coefficient v, and slip coefficient s, is given in Appendix III. In this study, the parameters describing the model storms and basins have a range usually less than an order (if magnitude. Thus, in dealing with the drag coefficient of the surface wind stress as well as eddy viscosity and slip coefficients, we have tacitly assumed constant values as sufficiently serviceable for the range of parameters in this report. This means that the results of the computa- tions are restricted mainly to tropical storms. 3. GEOGRAPHICAL ORIENTATION, STORM PARAMETERS, DEPTH PROFILES, DEFINITIONS For purposes of orientation in the following sections, the observer will always be at sea and facing the coast, The coast to his right will be considered relative north, to his left relative south. Crossing angles of the storm's path to this orientated coast will be described in me- teorological sense; thus a storm on the coast moving from relative north lias a crossing angle of 0°, moving normal to the coast from sea, a crossing angle of 90°, etc. There are five simple parameters to describe the strength, size, and motion of a model storm; these in turn.
