No If above answer is no, provide end year model development 1991 Code development status When did you indicate the 'code development status'? Model availability As code Source code availability (Or provide future intension) Through CSDMS repository Source web address Source csdms web address Program license type Other Program license type other -- Memory requirements <512Mb Typical run time Minutes Describe input parameters Timestep (sec.), Spacestep (m), Flow velocity at river mouth (m/s), Width and depth of river mouth (m), Bedload dumping rate (m/s), Concentration (gm/m3 of coarse and med silt, Concentration (gm/m3) of fine silt and clay) Input format ASCII Other input format Describe output parameters Vertically-integrated flow velocities and bed elevations as functions of time and two horizontal dimensions Output format ASCII Other output format Pre-processing software needed? No Describe pre-processing software Post-processing software needed? No Describe post-processing software Visualization software needed? Yes If above answer is yes Other visualization software any software that can read ASCII data Describe processes represented by the model This driver program solves the equations describing horizontal velocities in a buoyant, turbulent, plane jet issuing in a normal direction from a coast into a large volume of still fluid. Sedimentation under the jet is modelled using a hemipelagic rain formulation, bedload dumping, and downslope diffusion due to slides, slumps and turbidity currents. Describe key physical parameters and equations The equations are from Albertson et al. (1950) and Syvitski et al. (1988). Describe length scale and resolution constraints -- Describe time scale and resolution constraints -- Describe any numerical limitations and issues -- Describe available calibration data sets See Slingerland et al. (1994) Upload calibration data sets if available: Describe available test data sets Upload test data sets if available: Describe ideal data for testing Do you have current or future plans for collaborating with other researchers? None Is there a manual available?
