SimClast can theoretically be used on a le … SimClast can theoretically be used on a length scale upwards of 20 kms, the upper limit is dependant on memory and processing restrictions. Typical length scales vary from 25 to 500 km. The highest resolution is mainly dependant on the use of intracellular fluvial deposition, as described in Dalman & Weltje (2008) this restricts the minimum cell size to 4 kms. Recent addition of floodplain process reduces this to 500 m.n of floodplain process reduces this to 500 m. +

SimClast is a basin-scale 3D stratigraphic … SimClast is a basin-scale 3D stratigraphic model, which allows several interacting sedimentary environments. Processes included are; fluvial channel dynamics and overbank deposition, river plume deposition, open marine currents, wave resuspension, nearshore wave induced longshore and crosshore transport. This combined modelling approach allows insight into the processes influencing the flux of energy and clastic material and the effect of external perturbations in all environments. Many governing processes work on relatively small scales, e.g. in fluvial settings an avulsion is a relatively localised phenomenon. Yet, they have a profound effect on fluvial architecture. This means that the model must mimic these processes, but at the same time maintain computational efficiency. Additionally, long-term models use relatively large grid-sizing (km scale), as the area to be modelled is on the scale of continental margins. We solve this problem by implementing the governing processes as sub-grid scale routines into the large-scale basin-filling model. This parameterization greatly refines morphodynamic behaviour and the resulting stratigraphy. This modelling effort recreates realistic geomorphological and stratigraphic delta behaviour in river and wave-dominated settings.iour in river and wave-dominated settings. +
