Property:Describe length scale and resolution
From CSDMS
This is a property of type Text.
L
LISFLOOD is grid-based, and applications so far have employed grid cells of as little as 100 metres (for medium-sized catchments), to 5,000 metres for modelling the whole of Europe and up to 0.1° (around 10 km) for modelling on a global scale. +
C
Large scale (100 km+) model, suitable for orogenic scale modeling but could easily be adapted +
S
Length scale should be reach or larger (~100m and up). Run time depends on grid size and resolution. +
E
Length scale: ~10's of meters to ~1000's of km +
T
Length varies, resolution is on the order of several channel width (i.e., 1D model produces only reach-averaged results). +
G
Limited by resolutn of input & river systems data; basins < 20,000 km2 currently poorly represented +
D
Methods has been applied to data set of 100's of individual delta islands derived from Landsat satellite data (30-60m resolution). +
I
F
R
Model is 1D, we have used it over a x-section of a floodplain with varying flood inundation depth and durations. +
D
Model is intended to generate stratigraphy for 2D profiles of large deltas (100's of km's) +
P
Model used for grid size ranging from ~1m to 1000km +
1
Model uses a fixed hillslope length of 30 m constrained from topographic measurements. +
L
Near surface, length scale should be 5-10 cm if subsidence occurring. Deeper in permafrost, 1+ m okay. +
N
Nearshore regions from shoreline to 10 meter water depth. Model resolution depends on specific modules. +
S
No inherent length scale or resolution as long as the continuum hypothesis is satisfied. A practical constraint on length scale and resolution is computational cost. +
C
I
M
None except elapsed time and memory limits. +
