|LabDescription=I prepared a few notebooks that use the mesh generator dmsh, and the mesh generator from Anuga to create unstructured grids that are passed into Landlab. Examples contain code for creating Landlab models using these other mesh generators as a starting point. Only the flow accumulation and drainage area components are demo'd, but there are many other questions one might want to ask about the influence of cell resolution (and local cell resolution) on different landscape evolution processes. I thought this could make for an interesting/thought-provoking ETK lab, but I welcome any disagreement or differing opinions.
|LabDescription=This lab consists of three notebooks that use the mesh generator ''dmsh'' and the mesh generator from Anuga to create unstructured grids that are passed into Landlab. The examples contain code for creating Landlab models using these other mesh generators as a starting point. Only the flow accumulation and drainage area components are demo'd, but there are many other questions one might want to ask about the influence of cell resolution (and local cell resolution) on different landscape evolution processes.
|LabCOIntro=This lab is designed for undergraduate and graduate students studying earth sciences. The notebooks give participants the opportunity to interactively explore the topics covered.
