Summary Contact Technical specs In/Output Process Testing Other Component info Also known as Model type Single Model part of larger framework Note on status model Date note status model Incorporated models or components: Spatial dimensions Spatial extent Model domain One-line model description Process-response model simulating the evolution and stratigraphy of fluvial dominated deltaic systems Extended model description A process-response model simulating the evolution and stratigraphy of fluvial dominated deltaic systems in two dimensions, based on simple approximations of erosion and deposition. The model is called DELTASIM, and was initially presented by Overeem et al. (2003) as AQUATELLUS. DELTASIM has several improvements, the main algorithm has been revised and the output can be presented as probabilistic output.

Yes If above answer is yes Other visualization software -- Describe processes represented by the model longterm 2D deltaic sedimentation and clinoform formation for fluvial dominated deltas Describe key physical parameters and equations see references Describe length scale and resolution constraints Model is intended to generate stratigraphy for 2D profiles of large deltas (100's of km's) Describe time scale and resolution constraints Mostly tested for Holocene applications (>10,000yrs), potentially longer time scales. Describe any numerical limitations and issues -- Describe available calibration data sets Theoretical tests, Volga case study, Kura case study, (see references) Upload calibration data sets if available: Describe available test data sets Caspian sea experiences extremely rapid sea level fluctuation, making it a great test data set for coastline shifts. Upload test data sets if available: Describe ideal data for testing Known boundary conditions, discharge, and sediment load as well as basin fluctuations. Dated stratigraphic profiles in deltas that are mostly fluvial dominated, ie lake deltas. Do you have current or future plans for collaborating with other researchers? Overeem is developing an educational version of DELTASIM Is there a manual available? No Upload manual if available: Model website if any Model forum / discussion board Comments This part will be filled out by CSDMS staff OpenMI compliant No not possible BMI compliant No not possible WMT component Not yet"Not yet" is not in the list (Yes, In progress, No but possible, No not possible) of allowed values for the "Code CMT compliant or not" property.
