The input of alphaBetaLab consists of high-resolution bathymetric data and of a model mesh.

  • Bathymetry: in the current version only the ETOPO1 bathymetry is supported.
  • Model mesh. alphaBetaLab requires information on the model mesh in order to be able to determine the cell polygons, and what cells should be elaborated by the alphaBetaLab algorithm. Therefore, the input depends on the type of mesh examined.
    • Regular grids: the input is a structure (defined by class regularGridSpecWW3), which provides the specification of the grid (minimum longitude and latitude, grid steps, and the path of the WW3 grid mask file, which is used by alphaBetaLab masked cells from the computation).
    • Triangular meshes:
    • SMC meshes:
