SPARROW uses spatial data of land-use, soil characteristics and climate, and ingests data on fertilizers, and point-source pollution to predict water and constituents fluxes over time.

Reduced-Complexity Model of Delta Formation
CSDMS awarded the 2011 Student Modeler Award to Man Liang, of St Anthony Falls Laboratory, University of Minnesota. She developed a reduced-complexity model for delta formation, which mimics channel migration, bifurcation and avulsion. The model combines a more detailed hydro-dynamics solver with a cellular model that routes water and sediment packages over a river and delta plain. Simulated delta evolution and geometry compare well with mappings of natural deltas. More...
