Incorporated models or components:

Spatial dimensions	3D
Spatial extent	Continental, Regional-Scale
Model domain
One-line model description	LaMEM - Lithosphere and Mantle Evolution Model
Extended model description	A parallel 3D numerical code that can be used to model various thermomechanical geodynamical processes such as mantle-lithosphere interaction for rocks that have visco-elasto-plastic rheologies. The code is build on top of PETSc and the current version of the code uses a marker-in-cell approach with a staggered finite difference discretization.

Keywords:	Mantle Evolution Model,
