Description:
''Note: See also the GEOMBEST+ Users Guide'', section 6<br>
A minimum of four excel files are required to run a GEOMBEST-Plus simulation: an “erosionresponse” file, an “accretionresponse” file, a “run#” file, and a “tract#” file. If the simulation involves a single coastal tract then the files must be titled “erosionresponse”, “accretionreponse”, “run1” file and “tract1.” Quasi-3D simulations require additional files with sequential numbers. For example a simulation involving 3 tracts within a littoral cell also requires a “run2” and “run3” file as well as a “tract2” and “tract3” file. These files must conform to the strict format outlined in the following sections. If you are running multiple simulations of the same tract, you can use the multiple input and output files to keep track of your simulations. Caution: Note that the run# and tract# files will have the same name (tract1, run1, etc., see below) for all simulations and so attention to organization is critical. We suggest noting the changes made in each simulation in a readme file and then moving this file, as well as the input and output folders for each simulation, to a unique folder having an identifying name. Our convention, for example, has been to name each run with using the date and run number on that date as the identifier, e.g., the first simulation run on February 20, 2010 would be titled 02_20_10_01and would be placed in a folder having this name.
'''6.1: “erosionresponse” file'''<br>
'''6.2: “accretionresponse” file'''<br>
'''6.3: “run#” file'''<br>
'''6.4: “tract#” file''' +

time: the simulation time parameters defined by start, end, tout (the output interval) and dt (the internal time-step).
Follows the optional forcing conditions:
sea: the sea-level declaration with the relative sea-level position (m) and the sea-level curve which is a file containing 2 columns (time and sea-level position).
climatic & tectonic have the same structure with a sequence of events defined by a starting time (start) and either a constant value (uniform) or a map.
Then the parameters for the surface processes to simulate:
spl: for the stream power law with a unique parameter Ke representing the The erodibility coefficient which is scale-dependent and its value depend on lithology and mean precipitation rate, channel width, flood frequency, channel hydraulics. It is worth noting that the coefficient m and n are fixed in this version and take the value 0.5 & 1 respectively.
diffusion: hillslope, stream and marine diffusion coefficients. hillslopeK sets the simple creep transport law which states that transport rate depends linearly on topographic gradient. River transported sediment trapped in inland depressions or internally draining basins are diffused using the coefficient (streamK). The marine sediment are transported based on a diffusion coefficient oceanK. The parameter maxIT specifies the maximum number of steps used for diffusing sediment during any given time interval dt.
Finally, you will need to specify the output folder:

SPARROW modeling requires the integration of many types of geospatial data for use as explanatory variables which are considered as either constituent sources or delivery factors. Sources might include certain land types such as urban area, or known contaminant sources such as sewage treatment plants. Delivery terms can include any basin characteristic that may be associated with natural attenuation. For example, denitrification is often associated with certain soil characteristics and the spatial pattern of those soil characteristics is often related to that of constituent loads. In some cases delivery terms might also be associated with enhanced delivery. For example, high basin slope might cause more rapid flows which could increase the delivery of constituents. Delivery is also influenced by the water time of travel in streams, which can be estimated from published USGS time-of-travel studies (e.g., Reed and Stuckey, 2001). +

The Rippl function executes the sequent peak algorithm to determine the no-fail storage for given inflow and release time series. The storage function gives the design storage for a specified timebased reliability and yield. Similarly, the yield function computes yield given the storage capacity. The rrv function returns three reliability measures, relilience, and dimensionless vulnerability for given storage, inflow time series, and target release. Users can assume Standard Operating Policy, or can apply the output of sdp analysis to determine the RRV metrics under different operating objectives. The Hurst function estimates the Hurst coefficient for an annualized inflow time series. +
