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 Other platform Programming language Fortran77, C Other program language Code optimized Single Processor Multiple processors implemented Nr of distributed processors Nr of shared processors Start year development 1995 Does model development still take place? Yes If above answer is no, provide end year model development Code development status When did you indicate the 'code development status'? Model availability As code 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 None Memory requirements depends on model size Typical run time minutes to hours In/Output Describe input parameters SPM parameters (Kf, Kd, lf, etc) geomtrical and other parameters imposed by modifying the code Input format ASCII Other input format Describe output parameters H, fluxes, discharge, catchment geom, etc, at all time steps, as welle as grid connectivity Output format ASCII Other output format Pre-processing software needed? No Describe pre-processing software Post-processing software needed? Yes Describe post-processing software very limited X11 based graphic output Visualization software needed? Yes If above answer is yes Other visualization software interface not included Process Describe processes represented by the model Fluvial erosion, deposition and sedimentation, hillslope (diffusion) processes, flexure, orography Describe key physical parameters and equations see Braun, J. and Sambridge, M., 1997. Basin Research, v. 9, pp.27-52. Describe length scale and resolution constraints Large scale (100 km+) model, suitable for orogenic scale modeling but could easily be adapted Describe time scale and resolution constraints Evolution of Myrs, due to the model parameterization used (no human-scale proceses) Describe any numerical limitations and issues Limited to medium-size resolutions. Typical runs 256x256 Testing 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 -- Other Do you have current or future plans for collaborating with other researchers? Used by several collaborators in a variety of modified versions, adapted to each one's needs Is there a manual available?
