AGU2016-CSDMS

CSDMS sessions at AGU fall meeting

CSDMS annual meeting 2014 Uncertainty and Sensitivity in Surface Dynamics Modeling took place May 20-22, 2014 in Boulder Colorado. One of the outcomes was a special issue of Computers & Geosciences, volume 90 part B, ISSN 0098-3004, published April, 2016. Below is an overview of the papers with their abstracts.
We would like to thank all authors as well as the reviewers for their effort!

Moving Down the Chain - Studying Earth Surface Processes Using Computational Fluid Dynamics Approaches Across Scales Conveners: Tian-Jian Hsu, Scott Peckham, Eckart Meiburg, Xiaofeng Liu

Related to CSDMS group: Cyberinformatics and Numerics Working Group Modeling the dynamics of surface processes, e.g., the movement of fluids, and the flux of sediment and solutes requires a multi-scale approach. From a sand grain to regional scales, computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is a vital tool in the understanding of competing mechanisms, their interactions as well as accurate predictions. CFD has been applied to understand processes relevant to geomorphology and sediment source to sink, such as sedimentation, resuspension and turbidity currents. A grand challenge, e.g., as has been addressed by the Community Surface Dynamics Modeling System (CSDMS), is to effectively integrate key processes of different scales through parameterizations, model coupling, adaptive mesh refinement, and assimilative methodology. The purpose of this session is to get together researchers who use CFD to tackle earth surface processes. Particularly, we welcome abstracts addressing how model development and applications at different scales can collectively improve our physical understanding and prediction of earth surface processes.
