Describe processes represented by the model The model describes the tidal-network initiation and development, and the vertical accretion of the adjacent marsh platform. Tidal network development is driven by the exceedance of a local hydrodynamic bottom shear stress, controlled by water surface gradients. Marsh vertical growth is modeled by using a sediment balance equation acconting for erosion and deposition terms. The deposition terms account for sediment settling, trapping and organic production.
