Is CSDMS a Community Clastic Model?
No, it is a modeling community supporting a modeling architecture (not an “uber”-model). It deals with hydrology, nutrients, sediment (incl. carbonates), ecosystems, glaciers, oceanography, weather, etc. — earth-surface dynamics. The goal of CSDMS protocols is to allow for models and components to be combined in unique ways to answer diverse questions. CSDMS is interested in stand-alone models, components and compliant contributions.
