Earth Science Models for K6-12

The PhET project at CU Boulder has built numerous interactive simulations to which CSDMS scientists contribute. These are for K6-12 classrooms! PhET Earth Science simulations are found here.


InfiltrationatRifle.jpg
Hydrological Processes

These spreadsheet exercises for undergraduate students explore the main components of the water balance: precipitation, evaporation and infiltration. Excercise on Infiltration

CycloneNargisFloods2.jpg
Sinking Deltas

Deltas experience rapid sea level rise. These spreadsheet exercises explore thermal expansion, global sea-level rise and local relative sea-level rise and its causes in selected major deltas. For undergraduate level classes. Notes for students and instructors and spreadsheet excercise

Glacio-Hydrological Processes

First steps in modeling glacial evolution within the CMT Tool. We use the 'GC2DV0'model to evolve a glacier in the Animas valley, Colorado. PDF

River-Delta Interactions

Explore coastal processes by 1) a spreadsheet lab or 2) an advanced modeling lab using the CEM model. We look at the effects of waves and river avulson on the coastline. Spreadsheet Lab or the CMT Modeling Lab

Sediment Supply to the Global Ocean

Investigate river sediment supply to the ocean by 1) a spreadsheet lab or 2) an advanced modeling lab using the HydroTrend Model to explore effects of climate changes on river fluxes. We also look at the effect of humans on rivers: the building of a reservoir. Spreadsheet Lab or the CMT Modeling Lab

Simulation25000-1.jpg
Landscape Evolution Numerical Experiments

Wei Luo WILSIM: the Web-based Interactive Landform Simulation Model shows landscape evolves under different conditions. It allows you to look at the effects of landscape geometry, climate and tectonics and see how a river network develops over time. WILSIM runs through your internet browser and can be accessed here: WILSIM homepage.

Coastal Stratigraphy Experiments

Run a simple 2D barrier coast model. Focus is on exploration of the effects of external forcing factors, i.e. sediment supply and sea-level, on wave-dominated coasts and barrier islands.
