Nr of distributed processors
Nr of shared processors
Start year development	2005
Does model development still take place?	No
If above answer is no, provide end year model development
Code development status
When did you indicate the 'code development status'?
Model availability	As teaching tool
Source code availability (Or provide future intension)	Through owner"Through owner" is not in the list (Through web repository, Through CSDMS repository) of allowed values for the "Source code availability" property.
Source web address
Source csdms web address
Program license type	Other
Program license type other	--
Memory requirements	Variable
Typical run time	Variable

Describe input parameters	Staring grid topography and vegetation maps, control parameters such as potential transport rates, vegetation response functions
Input format	ASCII
Other input format
Describe output parameters	resultant landscape topography and vegetation distributions; annual avalanching statistics
Output format	ASCII
Other output format
Pre-processing software needed?	No
Describe pre-processing software
Post-processing software needed?	Yes
Describe post-processing software	Any package for imaging DEMs and vegetation maps
Visualization software needed?	Yes
If above answer is yes	ESRI, IDL, Matlab
Other visualization software

Describe processes represented by the model	development of dune landscapes under the interaction between aeolian sand transport and vegetation growth and response
Describe key physical parameters and equations	potential sand transport rate, sediment avaliability, vegetation response characteristics
Describe length scale and resolution constraints	smallest cell should be equivalent to basic plant element (bush, grass clump)
Describe time scale and resolution constraints	lower limit akin to days, no upper limit
Describe any numerical limitations and issues	heavy sequential number crunching (not written for parellel processing)

Describe available calibration data sets	none yet; in development
Upload calibration data sets if available:
Describe available test data sets	none yet; in development
Upload test data sets if available:
Describe ideal data for testing	field monitoring of geomorphic development and vegetation mapping, long-term required

Do you have current or future plans for collaborating with other researchers?	yes, future plans for collaborating on applying and comparing the model with real-world landscapes

Is there a manual available?	No
Upload manual if available:
Model website if any	http://www.aeoliangeomorphology.org
