Summary Contact Technical specs In/Output Process Testing Other Component info Also known as REM Model type Single Model part of larger framework Note on status model Date note status model Incorporated models or components: Spatial dimensions 1D Spatial extent Watershed-Scale Model domain Terrestrial, Hydrology One-line model description An intermediate complexity model for simulating stream channel evolution (years to decades) at the watershed scale. Extended model description REM mechanistically simulates channel bed aggradation/degradation and channel widening in river networks. It has successfully been applied to alluvial river systems to simulate channel change over annual and decadal time scales. REM is also capable of running Monte Carlo simulations (in parallel to reduce computational time) to quantify uncertainty in model predictions.

Model availability As code Source code availability (Or provide future intension) Through web repository Source web address https://github.com/rodlammers/REM Source csdms web address Program license type Other Program license type other MIT Memory requirements Typical run time 5-10 minutes for single run; hours for Monte Carlo runs Describe input parameters Channel geometry (e.g. bank height/angle, width, longitudinal profile); bed grain size distribution; discharge time series; sediment input time series; bank soil parameters (critical shear stress and cohesion) Input format ASCII Other input format Describe output parameters Channel geometry; sediment export 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 R package REMvisualizer Describe processes represented by the model Sediment transport, channel bed aggradation/degradation, fluvial bank erosion (excess shear stress) and bank failure (mass wasting).

Model input data available here: https://github.com/rodlammers/REM Upload test data sets if available: Describe ideal data for testing Long term (at least 10 years) of data on stream channel evolution. This would include changes in both channel width and bed elevation throughout a small channel network. Also have a continuous time series of discharge and physical characteristics of the stream channels (bed grain size distribution, bank soil erodibility, etc.). Do you have current or future plans for collaborating with other researchers? Is there a manual available? Yes Upload manual if available: Model website if any https://github.com/rodlammers/REM Model forum / discussion board Comments This part will be filled out by CSDMS staff OpenMI compliant Not yet"Not yet" is not in the list (Yes, No but planned, No but possible, No not possible) of allowed values for the "Code openmi compliant or not" property.
