About this simulation

COMET simulations allow learners to make mistakes and learn from them in a safe environment. The branching simulation below is a great way for learners to see how and why they may need to modify their communication with partners during wildfires. After three tries, it offers specific feedback about things that learners need to improve. This simulation is part of the MetEd lesson Fire Weather Communications: Clear Communication, which introduces forecasters to the communication strategies used for decision support services during wildland fire incidents.

About this simulation

COMET develops effective simulations based on operationally significant case studies that allow learners to practice forecasting decisions in a safe environment. The simulator in this lesson includes a timed release of products, both to mimic the evolving weather situation and to urge forecasters to make timely decisions to support customers. Occasional distractions can be included to model the interruptions forecasters might encounter during a shift.

Shallow Water Wave Calculator

Shallow Water Wave Calculator

Use this wave calculator to estimate the effects of shallow-water wave behaviors, including shoaling, refraction, reflection, breaking, attenuation, and coastal run-up.

About this interactive tool

COMET tools can function both within the context of a MetEd lesson and on their own. The Shallow Water Waves MetEd lesson familiarizes learners with the transformations waves undergo as they enter shallow water and are modified by shoaling, refraction, attenuation, and breaking. Understanding wave behavior in the nearshore environment is critical for issuing accurate forecasts for beach goers, mariners, and coastal communities. Included in the lesson is the Shallow-Water Wave Calculator, which can be used as an estimation tool for marine forecast operations.
