A landscape evolution model is a physically-based numerical model that simulates changing terrain over the course of time. The change in, or evolution of, terrain, can be due to: glacial or fluvial erosion, sediment transport and deposition, regolith production, the slow movement of material on hillslopes, more intermittent events such as rockfalls, debris flows, landslides, and other surface processes. These changes occur in response to the land surface being uplifted above sea-level (or other base-level) by surface uplift, and also respond to subsidence. A typical landscape evolution model takes many of these factors into account. Landscape evolution models are used primarily in the field of geomorphology. As they improve, they are beginning to be consulted by land managers to aid in decision making, most recently in the area of degraded landscapes. The earliest landscape evolution models were developed in the 1970s. In those models, flow of water across a mesh was simulated, and cell elevations were changed in response to calculated erosional power. Modern landscape evolution models can leverage graphics processing units and other acceleration hardware and software, to run more quickly. (Wikipedia).
How Does the Earth Create Different Landforms? Crash Course Geography #20
Cliffs and canyons, beaches and dunes, floodplains and river valleys, plateaus and mountains — these are all products of a restless Earth. In today’s episode we’re going to take a closer look at how landforms greatly influence how people live and derive meaning and a sense of place. From t

An ecosystem can be defined as a large, highly interconnected area of the planet that is composed of several different biotic and abiotic components. A good example of an ecosystem would be an entire forest or mountain range. A natural ecosystem is made of all the plants, animals, and en

Gaël Raoul - Range dynamics for a spatially structured asexual population
Natural populations live in a heterogeneous environment and tend to adapt their pheno-types to their local environment. To understand the range dynamics of a population, we thus need to consider the spatial propagation of the population, but also its evolutionary dynamics. Starting from si
