Source to Sink Modeling Lectures

Course Syllabus

To familiarize earth sciences, coastal and oceanography and engineering graduate students with a resources and a number of numerical surface process models and hydrological models available through Community Surface Dynamics Modeling System and introduce them to use of these software tools for their own research and teaching purposes.
Learn about the following surface processes:

• River sediment supply
• Landscape evolution
• Coastal evolution and longshore transport and wave processes
• Stratigraphic modeling

At the end of this course, students should be able to design and run simulations for independently designed research questions on sediment supply, landscape and coastline evolution and marine stratigraphic processes.
