LocalIsostasyErosionTectonics

class fastscape.processes.LocalIsostasyErosionTectonics(*, i_coef, erosion, surface_upward)

Local isostatic effect of both erosion and tectonic forcing.

This process makes no distinction between the density of rock and the density of eroded material (one single coefficient is used).

rebound

Isostasic rebound due to material loading/unloading

Variable properties:

type : variable
intent : out
dimensions : (‘y’, ‘x’)
groups : bedrock_upward, surface_upward

Type:: attr.Attribute

i_coef

Local isostatic coefficient

Variable properties:

type : variable
intent : in
dimensions : ()

Type:: attr.Attribute

erosion

Total erosion height at current step

Variable properties:

type : foreign
reference variable : TotalErosion.height
intent : in
dimensions : () or (‘y’, ‘x’)

Type:: attr.Attribute

surface_upward

Imposed vertical motion of topographic surface

Variable properties:

type : foreign
reference variable : TectonicForcing.surface_upward
intent : in
dimensions : () or (‘y’, ‘x’)

Type:: attr.Attribute
