Summary Also known as Model type Single Model part of larger framework Note on status model Date note status model Technical specs Supported platforms Unix, Linux, Mac OS, Windows Other platform Java Applet, Platform independent Programming language Java Other program language Code optimized Single Processor Multiple processors implemented Nr of distributed processors Nr of shared processors Start year development 2002 Does model development still take place? No If above answer is no, provide end year model development 2006 Code development status When did you indicate the 'code development status'? Model availability As code, As teaching tool Source code availability (Or provide future intension) Through CSDMS repository Source web address Source csdms web address Program license type GPL v2 Program license type other Memory requirements -- Typical run time Minutes In/Output Describe input parameters grid size, end time, initial slope, erodibility, climate (rainfall rate), tectonic (uplift rate and break point) Input format Other input format Applet GUI Describe output parameters -- Output format Other output format Applet Pre-processing software needed? 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 Process Describe processes represented by the model It simulates rainfall runoff process as random storm events that fall on the initial topographic surface and flow downhill following steepest descent. Describe key physical parameters and equations see above references Describe length scale and resolution constraints arbitrary Describe time scale and resolution constraints arbitrary Describe any numerical limitations and issues max grid size is 100 by 100. Testing Describe available calibration data sets None Upload calibration data sets if available: Describe available test data sets None Upload test data sets if available: Describe ideal data for testing None Other Do you have current or future plans for collaborating with other researchers? None Is there a manual available? Yes Upload manual if available: Model website if any http://www.niu.edu/landform Model forum / discussion board Comments This project was funded by NSF-CCLI program.
