Forcing:

m: meteorology
rs: Wave radiation stress in an analyst-supplied fort.23 input file
sw: Wave coupling using a simulataneously executing coupled SWAN model
st: Wave coupling using a simultaneously executing ESMF coupled STWAVE  model
ic: Ice coverage using an analyst-supplied fort.25 input file

Requirements:

f22: Requires analyst-supplied fort.22 meteorological forcing file.
f23: Requires analyst-supplied fort.23 wave radiation stress input file.
A+S: Requires ADCIRC+SWAN executable and input files for the coupled version of SWAN.
STW: Requires ESMF-coupled ADCIRC and STWAVE and input files for STWAVE.
f25: Requires analyst-supplied fort.25 ice coverage input file.

Notes:

a: Radiation stress time increment (RSTIMINC) represents the time increment between the datasets in the fort.23 file (in seconds).
b: RSTIMINC represents the span of ADCIRC simulation time that passes between calls to the coupled wave model.
c: NWS formats 1, 2, and 7 do not support the use of ice coverage (fort.25) files.
