The Community Surface Dynamics Modeling System (CSDMS) deals with the Earth's surface - the ever-changing, dynamic interface between lithosphere, hydrosphere, cryosphere, and atmosphere. We are a diverse community of experts promoting the modeling of earth surface processes by developing, supporting, and disseminating integrated software modules that predict the erosion, transport, and deposition of sediment and solutes in landscapes and their sedimentary basins.

Comb Ridge: story of a landform: During the week of the Thanksgiving holiday, I had the opportunity to visit a remote part of southeastern Utah near the Bears Ears National Monument. A striking feature of this landscape is a long hogback called Comb Ridge, or Tséyik’áán in Navajo. The ridge is formed from layers of thick, hard .....
