Process
Describe processes represented by the model
|
longterm 2D deltaic sedimentation and clinoform formation for fluvial dominated deltas
|
Describe key physical parameters and equations
|
see references
|
Describe length scale and resolution constraints
|
Model is intended to generate stratigraphy for 2D profiles of large deltas (100's of km's)
|
Describe time scale and resolution constraints
|
Mostly tested for Holocene applications (>10,000yrs), potentially longer time scales.
|
Describe any numerical limitations and issues
|

|
Testing
Describe available calibration data sets
|
Theoretical tests, Volga case study, Kura case study, (see references)
|
Upload calibration data sets if available:
|
|
Describe available test data sets
|
Caspian sea experiences extremely rapid sea level fluctuation, making it a great test data set for coastline shifts.
|
Upload test data sets if available:
|
|
Describe ideal data for testing
|
Known boundary conditions, discharge, and sediment load as well as basin fluctuations.
Dated stratigraphic profiles in deltas that are mostly fluvial dominated, ie lake deltas.
