[edit] Model Animations

Model animations illustrate earth surface processes. Every animation has an associated fact-sheet with a short description of the animation.



[edit] Modeling Labs

CSDMS shares model executables and notes for exercises with students as integrated packages.

  • I. Overeem, 09/08: "Geological Modeling Lab on Coastal Stratigraphy".
    The excercise is part of a course on Geological Modeling, intended for graduate level teaching. The zipped file contains an executable of a teaching model, BarSim, developed originally by Joep Storms. The archive contains notes for a 3-hour computer lab as well as the background literature. Feel free to download the material for use in your own courses and please provide feedback or expand the material! The excercise allows graduate students hands-on experience with a simple stratigraphic model to get insight in setting up stratigraphic simulation experiments. Focus is on exploration of the effects of external forcing factors, i.e. sediment supply and sea-level, on wave-dominated coasts and barrier islands.
