This study focuses on modeling a sloshing water in a bowl configuration of HYCOM. Comparison with analytical solution are made. These solutions are given by Thacker (1981). The Wetting And Drying (WAD) scheme in HYCOM has been developed by Baraille. Recently, Morel et al. have also been studying and validate this scheme in HYCOM for different cases. We also show that the model well represent this adjustement in terms of period of the oscillation and amplitudes. Numerical dissipation will force the sloshing water to be stable after 31 days approximately. The same configuration is done with the finite volume model FVCOM used at COAPS by Dukhovsoy (see below).

Details are given on the final report of Sebastien Denneulin.
