Motivation for NWS=12 replacement
A major source of error in ADCIRC can come from the accuracy and representation of the wind and pressure fields.
Additional Motivation
• Replicate NWS12 features and more
• Single-file, wind/pressure/all-grids
• Multiple grid overlays
• Moving storm-centered grids
• Grids that can change size
• Curvilinear grids
• Arbitrary # of grid overlays
• New ADCIRC NWS interp code
• Arbitrary & irregular timestep
