Version History

[4.0.4] - 2026-04-22

added shouldUseTrueNoMotionProfile to the constant-stratification, hydrostatic, and Boussinesq transforms so eta_true uses rho_nm0 by default and rho_nm when explicitly requested.
added an advisory EtaTrueOperation:OptimizationToolboxUnavailable warning when shouldUseTrueNoMotionProfile=true and rho_nm is being computed without Optimization Toolbox support.
added focused tests covering eta_true profile selection, warning behavior, transform-copy preservation, and NetCDF round-trip persistence of shouldUseTrueNoMotionProfile.
changed WVTransform.version to read from resources/mpackage.json instead of a hard-coded version string so runtime metadata stays aligned with the package manifest.

pinned InternalModes to 1.0.1 so MPM resolves a SplineCore-compatible dependency set for WaveVortexModel installs.

new moment based algorithm for computing rho_nm.
eta_true now computed from high order spline representation of rho_nm; recores SplineCore package.
added placeParticlesOnIsopycnals function to all WVStratification subclasses.

Added support for `WVForcing’, a mechanism for adding arbitrary forcing to the model which also also the nonlinear fluxes to be automatically diagnosed.
Added `WVObservingSystems’, a mechanism for adding user defined observing systems to the model, such as drifters, mooring, along-track altimetry.

Fully non-linear forwards model for hydrostatics.
Never formally declared version 2.0, but on this date we successfully modeled the Cyprus eddy example from the JFM directly in the WaveVortexModel.

Model expanded to project any state of the fluid onto the complete wave-vortex basis, and time step the state forward linearly. The code was moved to Matlab.

Initially released as a linear internal wave model that time stepped forward non-hydrostatic internal gravity waves in variable stratification using internal wave modes. The code was written in C and Objective-C.
