Model description
| Model type:
|
Single model for the terrestrial, coastal and marine domain.
|
| Description:
|
Another derivative of the original SEDSIM, completely rewritten from scratch. It uses finite differences (in addition to the original particle-cell method) to speed up steady flow calculations. It also incorporates compaction algorithms. A general description has been published.
