CMS is a coastal modeling system that couples a wave, circulation, and morphology model together to get better predictions in the near-shore.

Coastal Modeling System (CMS)

CMS is a coastal modeling system that couples a wave, circulation, and morphology model together to get better predictions in the near-shore.

CMS is developed by the USACE - Coastal and Hydraulics Laboratory

Documentation for the CMS is available from the CIRP Wiki.

Building/Editing

Windows platform

Building CMS on Windows requires use of the Microsoft Visual Studio GUI. This repository was created using the Intel Fortran compiler. The versions of the GUI and compiler primarily being used are as follows:

• MS Visual Studio 2019 Community
• Intel oneAPI 2021.4

Once the sofware has been installed, the user should load the solution file.

Linux platform

To build CMS On linux you must have CMAKE software above 2.8.

1. cd source
2. cmake .
3. make

This will leave you with an executable named 'cms' in your local working directory

To clean all of the intermediate files and old executable, type 'make clean' from the "source" directory.

Note: Linux builds have not been fully tested on HPC platform and some extra configuration may be necessary.
