DUNE F / I ,BERM Figure 1.—Plan and vertical section views of the standard model basin used in this study. 3. APPLICABILITY OF THE MODEL WITHOUT BOTTOM STRESS The numerical model without bottom stress cannot handle all conceivable situations and must be restricted to prescribed ranges of storm speed, and direction of storm motion in the basin. These ranges were subjectively determined by trial experiments through comparison of the surge profiles with and without bottom friction. If the differences in the compared surge profiles were small, then the movement vector of the storm was considered applicable. Results of trial experiments appear to give reasonable surges for storms moving moderately or very fast along paths that cross the coast at an angle not too small. For other vector storm motions, the model generates shelf seiches and resurgences of large amplitude or large trans- port values along the coast; these features are objectionable and should be excluded from the model. For very slowly moving storms, the model generates shelf seiches of signifi- cent amplitude. For storms of large areal extent, enormous transports eventually form in the coastal regions. This situation can be controlled with the introduction of bottom friction, but there is great variance in the damping effects on the seiches with different dissipating mechanisms. With or without bottom friction (neglecting seiches, and storms of large areal extent), the most significant.
