several sensitivity runs, the following values were finally selected for model 
coefficients and parameters for calibration: Manning’s n=0.02, horizontal 
eddy coefficient A,=20,000 cm7/sec, and vertical eddy coefficient Ay=10 
cm?/sec. A time-step of 60 sec was used for both external and internal 
modes. The wind drag coefficient was selected according to Garrat (1977). 
Additional details are given in CERC (1990).
