    "descript": "A stand-alone wave model application was constructed using the spectral wave model SWAN within the Delft3D4 (version 4.04.01) modeling system to simulate nearshore wave dynamics along the coast of the Columbia River littoral cell, Washington and Oregon. Nearshore wave dynamics are solved at hourly intervals on a series of nested grids with resolutions varying between 750 m for the largest grid to about 80 m for the two detailed grids that cover the Grays Harbor and Columbia River inlets. The provided model input files are compressed into zip archives for each year of a hindcast simulation between August 2014 and September 2023. Additional input files are included that specify a second hindcast for the time period between July 2010 and August 2011.",
