|One-line model description=Basin and landscape dynamics
|Extended model description=Basin and Landscape Dynamics (Badlands) is a parallel TIN-based landscape evolution model, built to simulate topography development at various space and time scales. The model is presently capable of simulating hillslope processes (linear diffusion), fluvial incision ('modified' SPL: erosion/transport/deposition), spatially and temporally varying geodynamic (horizontal + vertical displacements) and climatic forces which can be used to simulate changes in base level, as well as effects of climate changes or sea-level fluctuations.

{{Process description model
|Describe processes represented by the model=Basin and Landscape Dynamics (Badlands) is a parallel TIN-based landscape evolution model, built to simulate topography development at various space and time scales. The model is presently capable of simulating hillslope processes (linear diffusion), fluvial incision ('modified' SPL: erosion/transport/deposition), spatially and temporally varying geodynamic (horizontal + vertical displacements) and climatic forces which can be used to simulate changes in base level, as well as effects of climate changes or sea-level fluctuations.
|Describe key physical parameters and equations=The model is mainly written in fortran and is based on the following characteristics:

- The finite volume approach from Tucker et al. (2001) based on the dual Delaunay-Voronoi framework is used to solve the continuity equation explicitly,
- Node ordering is perform efficiently based on the work from Braun & Willett (2013),
- A Hilbert Space-Filling Curve method algorithm (Zoltan) is used to partition the TIN-based surface into subdomains,
- Drainage network partitioning is generated through METIS library.
|Describe length scale and resolution constraints=catchment to continental scale
|Describe time scale and resolution constraints=thousands to millions of years
|Describe any numerical limitations and issues=A compilation of examples and documentation can be found in this Badlands-doc GitHub repository (http://github.com/badlands-model/Badlands-doc).
