Recent Releases of Badlands

Badlands - Serial version

Adding the following functionality:

  • adding turbidity currents erosion/deposition
  • Fuzzy logic approach is used to estimate carbonate growth based on depth, wave energy and sedimentation rate.
  • Long-term evolution of longshore currents and induced sediment transport is simulated based on linear wave theory.

Badlands - 3D displacements

In addition to v2.0 the following capabilities are available:

  • 3D surface deformations using the node refinement technique proposed by Thieulot et al. ( 2014).
  • Varying erodibility layers (both horizontally and vertically) to simulate impact of changing sediment characteristics on landscape evolution.

Badlands - Fortran implementation

Initial release of Badlands 2016

The model is written in fortran and is based on the following characteristics:

  • The finite volume approach from Tucker et al. (2001) based on the dual Delaunay-Voronoi framework is used to solve the continuity equation explicitly,
  • Node ordering is perform efficiently based on the work from Braun & Willett (2013),
  • A Hilbert Space-Filling Curve method algorithm (Zoltan) is used to partition the TIN-based surface into subdomains,
  • Drainage network partitioning is generated through METIS library.

Badlands - stable release version 2.0.0

This release adds new capabilities to the code:

  • multiple formulations for fluvial processes from detachment to transport limited cases are implemented,
  • long-term evolution of longshore currents and induced sediment transport is simulated based on linear wave theory
  • fuzzy logic approach is used to estimate carbonate growth based on depth, wave energy and sedimentation rate

Badlands - stable release version 1.1.0

This release add new capabilities to the code:

  • simulates river entering in the simulation area
  • output of Chi parameter in Hdf5 flow network
  • multi-erodibility layers creation
  • 3D stratigraphic layer displacements

This release is compatible with version 1.0.0 and will work with similar XML input files.
