Modeling Textbooks
CSDMS works with modelers in the community who have published textbooks on modeling. We keep the associated code in the model repository so that it is easy to get for faculty and students alike.

Quantitative Modeling of Earth Surface Processes
Pelletier, Jon D.
Cambridge University Press, 2008. ISBN: 9780521855976
This textbook describes effective and straightforward quantitative techniques for modeling Earth surface processes. State-of-the-art modules function as a set of simple but practical research tools. Detailed case studies demonstrate application of the methods to a wide variety of processes including hillslope, fluvial, aeolian, glacial, tectonic, and climatic systems. C routines are available through the CSDMS model repository.

Simulating Clastic Sedimentary Basins-Physical Fundamentals and Computing Procedures
Rudy L. Slingerland, K. Furlong and J. Harbaugh. Prentice Hall
Englewood Clifss, NJ, 1994
This textbook describes basic fundamental sedimentary processes and shows how to simplify these processes into quantitative models. Processes reach over a range of scales and time domains; i.e. landscape evolution to bedload transport. All FORTRAN routines can be accessed through the CSDMS model repository.
