What's New in EFDC+

Release 12.2 Edge (241022)

October 2024

  • Add minimum depth for biota vertical migration

Description: A minimum water depth can be specified by users for biota vertical migration option Dynamic Velocity (Visser et al., 1997. As a result, the vertical migration of biota in one cell is only activated when the cell’s water depth is above that minimum depth. This addition prevents unrealistic results of biota concentration when the model uses the Dynamic Velocity option for biota vertical migration, especially in shallow water regions.

  • Moving QSER inflow to adjacent cells

Description: With the moving QSER option, when the cell location of a flow boundary becomes dry, EFDC+ will look for a surrounding cell to determine if the flow can migrate. This process continues until the original cell location of the flow boundary is wet again, allowing water to flow in. The issue in EFDC+ 12.1 and previous versions is that the flow and the associated constituents at the new BC’s cells continue to migrate even when the BC’s location is reset to the original one. As a result, more sources of flow and, eventually, constituents will be added to the system than expected. In EFDC+ 12.2, the new BC’s cells are reset to zero whenever the original BC’s location allows the flow to migrate.

  • Handling turbulence quantities at east open boundary cells

Description: The “L” index of east open boundary cells is incorrectly assigned, while EFDC+ handles the turbulence quantities for these cells. The issue causes incorrect values of turbulence quantities at east open boundary cells for models using GOTM for turbulence models. The “L” index of east open boundary cells was updated to the correct values in EFDC+ 12.2.

Release 12.1 Edge (240723)

July 2024

  • COARE 3.6 Integration: COARE is one of the most frequently used algorithms in the air-sea interaction community to predict surface temperatures. It is designed to give estimates of the turbulent fluxes of sensible and latent heat and the stress from measurements of bulk variables such as water temperature, air pressure, and specific humidity. With the release of EEMS 12.1, the Environmental Fluid Dynamics Code Plus (EFDC+) will allow users to simulate these fluxes by incorporating the COARE subroutines. You can learn more about the implementation of this feature in our introductory blog post. In this more recent blog post, we have also demonstrated that the algorithm can be applied in freshwater bodies such as Lake Mendota.
  • Vertical Layering Enhancements: A new vertical layering option following the Sigma-Zed (SGZ) approach has recently been added to EEMS. The new SGZ scheme allows the user to specify layer thickness in meters from the water surface. Itoffers significant flexibility in configuring the vertical layering system, complementing the existing options, including the original Sigma Stretch (SIG) and the current Sigma-Zed (SGZ). Learn more about these changes by reviewing this blog post or reading the Knowledge Base.
  • Volatilization Option: When simulating chemical fate and transport, volatile chemicals at the air-water interface frequently off-gas from the water into the atmosphere. The Chemical Fate module in EEMS is designed to work primarily in conjunction with the Sediment module, as the toxic substances sorb to sediments. In cases where sediment data is sparse or missing altogether, using a dye class as a proxy for the dissolved chemicals is recommended. To help users more accurately simulate this case, a volatilization component has been added to the dye proxy. To learn more, read this blog post or the EFDC+ Theory Document.
  • 3 Time Level Scheme Updates: A number of improvements have been made to the 3 Time Level (3TL) computational scheme. This numerical solution option is often more stable and faster than the 2 Time Level (2TL) scheme since it allows a larger computational time step. However, the 3TL scheme was not fully implemented in the original EFDC from Hamrick. DSI has refactored the code for the application of parallel computing using OMP-MPI. DSI has also fixed several bugs in the code so that 3TL has now become our favored solution option for hydrodynamic models.
  • NetCDF Updates: EFDC+ has recently been integrated into studies as part of the Delft-Flood forecasting and Early Warning System (FEWS) platform. Delft-FEWS is open software using a modular framework to link big data to a local area or from other modeling systems. In this study, EFDC+ was required as one of the modules, and the NetCDF capabilities were required to be updated to the latest convention to allow seamless integration. Some of the improvements for EEMS 12.1 include:
    • Upgraded NetCDF CF Conventions 1.4 to 1.11
    • Upgraded to UGRID 1.0 Conventions
    • Fixed standard names and units according to NetCDF CF Conventions 1.8 checker

Release 11.7 LTS (230623)

June 2023

  • Vegetation: EFDC+ vegetation drag option has historically used an implicit momentum approach for the external and internal model solution.  However, this approach produced unrealistic velocities for multi-layer model when the vegetation only partially penetrated the water column.  A new explicit approach has been added that handles both fully and partially penetrating vegetation in single or multiple layer configurations.
  • Wind Waves: Coupled the EFDC+ wind wave approach to the SEDZLJ sediment transport module.  Previously, the wind wave approach was only linked to the original sediment transport module.  Improved the EE linkage of computed wave generated shear stresses and the display of wave parameters.
  • Propwash: Implemented a new approach for specifying applied power to allow for forward and reverse thrust.
  • Restart file generation: EFDC+ should allow the restart files to be generated at a specified interval or at the end of the run (EoR).  However, the EoR option did not work properly. EFDC+ now will generate restart file at regular intervals and/or EoR.
  • Wind Waves: Updated the wind wave module to use the average water depth along the fetch for each cell at each time step instead of average model domain water depth.
  • Jet-Plume Boundary Conditions: Fixed the implementation of withdrawal/return flow option.
  • MPI Implementation Bugs:
    • High Frequency Model Output
    • Jet-Plume boundary conditions
    • Cell face masks (ISMASK > 1)
  • For the two-time level solution, updated the wetting/drying process to prevent invalid adjustments to the water column constituent concentrations when a cell goes dry. This correction was already implemented for the three-time level solution.

Release 11.6 Edge (230220)

February 2023

  • Cleaned legacy code when using manual array ALLOCATE and initialized to the function AllocateDSI to improve code readability and minimize the possibility of uninitialized variables.
  • Clarified and updated treatment of ice time series and ice time series options. For the cases of ISICE = 1 or 2, the user specifies the time series of ice on/off.  In legacy EFDC code, the ISICE = 2 option was for time series of ice thicknesses.  However, EFDC has never used ice thickness in the calculations of ice impact; it only used ice on or ice off.  Ice thickness was removed from the ISE time series.  ISICE = 2 interpolates ice on/off flags to set the ice on/off state.  If the ice flag is >= 0.5, then the ice flag is on; if the flag is < 0.5, then the ice flag is off.
  • Lowered the minimum value used to prevent division by zero when concentrations are zero in the anti-diffusion option to eliminate impacts on the results.
  • Additional code refactoring.
  • Propeller momentum from a single propeller can be distributed across multiple cells if the propeller is larger than the cell size. However, in 11.5, propeller momentum was left “on” for some cells after the propeller was turned off.  This bug has been corrected in 11.6.
  • Fixed the EE linkage files to correctly save wave dissipation when using multiple MPI domains.
  • Fixed bug with OpenMP multi-threading that produced slight differences in the results between single and multiple thread runs of the same model. Now there are no differences in EFDC+ results for single versus multi-threaded runs.
  • Improved the single domain to multiple domain MPI runs when comparing model results. Small differences in results between a single domain run compared to multiple domain model runs still exist due to computer truncation error differences between different runs.  However, these differences are generally very small when comparing time series for the same cell between different runs.
  • Fixed bug that overwrote certain arrays read in the from the restart.inp file.
  • Updated the reporting of propwash timing to the TIME.LOG file and screen.
  • Corrected a bug when initializing bulk decay versus biodegradation.
  • Fixed a bug when initializing a SEDZLJ bed from the SEDBED_HOT.SDF file.

Release 11.5 (221018) Edge / 11.5.2 Edge (230105)

October 2022 / January 2023

  • Added “fast settling” sediment classes during propwash erosion events. The fast settling classes reflect the process of mass erosion due to a more turbulent and energetic flowfield in the propwash plume.  These mass eroded sediments then behave differently in the water column than the original sediment classes, predominantly by reflecting a faster settling rate than the original sediment classes. The addition of the fast settling classes and the fate and transport of these sediments is dynamically handled by EFDC+.  The fast settling classes are fully integrated into the toxics transport of EFDC+.
  • Added two new open boundary condition types. A free tangential and a zero tangential anti-reflection boundary condition were added to improve the propagation of waves out of the model domain without reflecting off the open boundary.
  • Improved the zero tangential and free tangential radiation boundary conditions previously in EFDC+ to handle non-zero average tidal levels.
  • Added capability of macrophyte growth between layers and for the base of the macrophytes to be in any layer. Allows for floating macrophytes to start at the surface and drape down into the water column.
  • Added more detail to the executable logging for the efdc+ output files
  • Limit the withdrawal layers to only active layers. This check was needed because the  Sigma-Zed vertical layering approach can use different numbers of layers per cell.
  • Removed duplicate timing variables ISTL_ and IS2TL_ from all subroutines. These variables were available in the global module.
  • Disabled horizontal eddy diffusivity and viscosity for large aspect ratio cells on the open boundary.
  • Improved reporting of ice generation limitations when cells are shallow and/or dry.
  • Added more checks for toxic bed initial conditions.
  • Improve the performance of the cyclone wind field boundary condition option.
  • Fixed issues with multiple toxics using multiple OpenMP threads. Now when using multiple threads or single threads, the toxic calculations are reproducible.
  • Fixed water quality mass loading when using withdrawal flow conditions as the original mass loading approach for water quality state variables did not address withdrawals.
  • Forced dry cells to be wet for point source loading inflows.
  • Fixed a bug for converting groundwater inflow time series from input units to cubic meters per second.
  • PSMLMULTIPLIER was added to the mass loading option to correct for 3TL solutions. Historically, the mass loading for 3TL was underestimating loads due to the trapezoidal correction.  For 2TL solutions, the PSMLMULTIPLIER is = 1.0, but for 3TL solutions, PSMLMULTIPLIER is adjusted for the number of steps between the corrector step.

Release 11.4 Edge (220822)

August 2022

  • Reverted gravity constant back to 10.3 version g = 9.81 m/s2 (In 11.2, the gravity constant was changed to 9.807 from 9.81 to represent a more “mid latitude” domain.  This small change had a small impact on all models with density activated.  For this reason, the change was reverted in 11.4 back to the 9.81 constant used in previous versions).
  • Improved the application of the BC_EDGEFACTOR to address momentum flags for models with multiple boundary condition cells adjacent to each other.  This will not impact models without a large number of adjacent BC cells.
  • Ignored both evaporation and rainfall for the option IEVAP = 0
  • Removed unnecessary variable arguments in numerous subroutines and functions
  • Fixed bug that did not update ice temperatures when the ice cover fully melted.  This will not have any impact on the model results.

Release 11.3 Edge (220712)

July 2022

  • ChemFate partitioning options have been supplemented. This new feature allows the user to control partitioning on a cell-by-cell basis to better represent spatially varying site conditions. There are now two new files, PARTITIONB.INP and PARTITIONW.INP to allow for spatial varying of toxic partition coefficients in the sediment bed and water column. 
  • Added “fast settling” of cohesive classes that are eroded by propwash to the SEDZLJ sediment transport module.  This was added to address different settling rates of material eroded by mass or bulk erosion (i.e. eroded chunks) of a cohesive bed.  These larger chunks settle faster than the discrete particle erosion of a more uniform flow patterns.
  • The “fast settling” approach has been fully integrated into the ChemFate module.
  • Update to NetCDF for Lagrangian particle tracking module and added more variables. This now writes a separate file.
  • Macrophyte and periphyton growth can now move between layers
  • Macrohydro option to allow for impact of macrophyte growth on hydrodynamics
  • SEDZLJ output frequency issue
  • Zero HBED issue.
  • Improved the treatment of momentum flags for open boundaries.  Previously, open boundaries would disable the cell momentum for both the boundary cell and the adjacent cell if using the “zero tangential” option.  Now only the open boundary cell momentum is disabled.  If a model used open boundaries, the user may experience slight variations in model results during periods of higher velocities at the boundary.
  • Several bugs fixed in ChemFate module including degradation and volatilization when using MPI.
  • Improved bed temperature handling for shallow and dry cells when excessive solar radiation is transmitted through the water column.  Ensured bed temperature initial conditions were within a realistic range (0 to 50 deg C) for models with shallow cell and/or wetting and drying activated that allow bed temperatures to be updated during the simulation, small differences in temperature, especially in the shallower cells, will be seen.
  • Fixed bug for adding ChemFate using the jet/plume boundary condition.  Previously, toxics were ignored in the plume calculations.  Now the code correctly handles toxic discharges.
  • Changed the code to use the internal TIMESEC global timing variable instead of integer iteration counts
  • Fixed a bug when using hot starts with propwash and sediment transport turned on. Hot starts now work as expected
