Property:Describe length scale and resolution
From CSDMS
This is a property of type Text.
T
I
G
GSFLOW is intended for modeling catchments from the km-scale to the 100s-of-km scale +
C
Has been applied to catchments ranging from 1km^2 to 500km^2, at grid resolutions ranging from 1m to 50m. +
G
W
Hillslope simulations are recommended for lengths not greatly exceeding 100 meters. Watershed simulations should not exceed areas above 260 hectares. Larger areas can be simulated for hillslope spatial analyses only - but the channel processes will not be accurate at these larger scales. +
S
I
S
F
H
HydroTrend should be applied to river larger than 100km; and basins smaller than 75000km2. +
P
In its current state, the code is restricted to low Reynolds number and Peclet number of order 1000. +
C
In principle, the model can address spatial scales ranging from gullies and small (~1km2) catchments to mountain ranges, as long as setup and parameters are chosen appropriately. Resolutions greater than about 10,000 nodes normally require significant computation time. +
Q
In the field, this model is applicable in the range of landscape and regional scales (~10-100km). It has also been successfully applied at the scale of physical experiments. +
I
Increasing the number of processors should allow larger/higher resolution landscapes to be considered. +
R
H
It is best performance for high resolution (<100m) simulation.
With the version 3.0, coarser resolution is supported through stream burning feature. +
T
It is intended for application to small catchments (up to 10 km2, and generally smaller than 1 km2). +
M
It's a reach scale. It is applied to 30km downstream of the Buech river. However, if dx is changed upward/downward, the time step should be adjusted. +
