SteadyStateAg
This model is a calculator for approach to equilibrium in recirculating and feed flumes
Model introduction
This program implements the calculation for steady-state aggradation of a sand-bed river in response to sea level rise at a constant rate.
Model parameters
Uses ports
This will be something that the CSDMS facility will add
Provides ports
This will be something that the CSDMS facility will add
