Turbidity currents are sediment-loaded, underwater currents that flow along the seafloor slope, and due to their rare and destructive nature, field observation are notoriously difficult. Consequently, numerical models are key tools for the exploration of turbidity current dynamics. TURBINS (by Mohamad Nasr-Azadani of the Univ. of California, winner CSDMS student modeler award) is such a model; capable of modeling turbidity currents interacting with complex topographies both 2D and 3D.
