ClueMondo, a land-use change model is the latest contribution to the CSDMS repository by Prof. Peter Verburg of the University of Amsterdam. ClueMondo is a global model designed to assess land-use transitions based on outside drivers, local land suitability, resistance to conversion, and the competitive advantage of the land systems. The model highlights how unique the effects of increasing agricultural production with different strategies are in different regions of the world. More...

-We congratulate '''Dr. Anders Damsgaard''', who recently graduated from Aarhus University, Denmark, he is selected as the CSDMS Student Modeler of 2015. Damsgaard presents an outstanding modeling approach to granular flow and bed deformation, and applies the new technique to provide insights on glacier ice-bed interactions. Grain to grain dynamics and variation in meltwater pressure help explain stick and slip behavior of glaciers.
