The model framework couples Barrier3D (Reeves et al., 2021), a spatially explicit model of barrier evolution, with the Python version of the Coastal Landscape Transect model (CoLT; Valentine et al., 2023), known as PyBMFT-C (Bay-Marsh-Forest Transect Model with Carbon). In the BarrierBMFT coupled model framework, two PyBMFT-C simulations drive evolution of back-barrier marsh, bay, mainland marsh, and forest ecosystems, and a Barrier3D simulation drives evolution of barrier and back-barrier marsh ecosystems. As these model components simultaneously advance, they dynamically evolve together by sharing information annually to capture the effects of key cross-landscape couplings. BarrierBMFT contains no new governing equations or parameterizations itself, but rather is a framework for trading information between Barrier3D and PyBMFT-C. The use of this coupled model framework requires Barrier3D v2.0 (https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.7604068) and PyBMFT-C v1.0 (https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.7853803).

No Describe pre-processing software Post-processing software needed? No Describe post-processing software Visualization software needed? No If above answer is yes Other visualization software Describe processes represented by the model Explores ecogeomorphic couplings between adjacent and non-adjacent components of the entire coastal barrier system, from the ocean shoreface to the mainland forest. Processes include: Dune growth and storm erosion; storm overwash; shoreline change (ocean and back-barrier); dynamic shoreface response to sea-level rise, overwash, and dune growth; horizontal and vertical marsh dynamics; bay depth changes with wind waves; marsh migration into coastal forests; sediment exchange between barrier-marsh-bay-forest ecosystems; and carbon processes associated with ecogeomorphic changes. Describe key physical parameters and equations Describe length scale and resolution constraints Cross-shore transect length can extend 10's of km from the ocean barrier shoreface into the mainland. Grid resolution on the barrier is 10 m, and 1 m spacing from the back-barrier marsh to the mainland. Describe time scale and resolution constraints Time step: one year, with multiple storms occurring within each year Duration: years to centuries Describe any numerical limitations and issues Describe available calibration data sets Upload calibration data sets if available: Describe available test data sets Upload test data sets if available: Describe ideal data for testing Do you have current or future plans for collaborating with other researchers? Is there a manual available?
