Output parameters
Figure 5.39 The list of deterministic output parameters includes a number variable
for easy visualization of e.g. the wave breaking process
You can choose following output parameter types:

Surface elevation

Water depth

P flux

Q flux

Still water depth

Auxiliary variable (1DH module only)

Roller thickness (2DH module only)

Roller angle (2DH module only)

Roller celerity, c
x
(2DH module only)

Roller celerity, c
y
(2DH module only)

Water level (roller) (2DH module only)
Surface elevation
The surface elevation is a basic model parameter and should always be
included in your model specifications. It is calculated on basis of computed
water depth and bathymetry. You can use this item for 3D visualisation of the
instantaneous surface elevation (see e.g. Figure 5.40) using MIKE Animator
Plus.
Water depth
The water depth is a prognostic variable similar to the P flux and Q flux.
