A model of continental rifting in Underworld2 using the UWGeodynamics wrapper.
Run a model by doing:
python3 -u lmondy_rift.py --total_vel 2 --gap_to_stop_sedi 100 --total_time 30 --res_scale 1.0 --name second
where:
total_vel
is the total extension velocity in cm/yr,
gap_to_stop_sedi
is in kilometers. It controls when sedimentation will stop. It looks at the moho marker passive swarm, and if a gap bigger than gap_to_stop_sedi
occurs, sedimentation will turn off.
total_time
is the amount of time to run the model for in millions of years,
res_scale
is a resolution multiplier. Default resolution is about 1 km, so for example a res_scale
of 0.5 will make it 2 km resolution.
name
will change the output folder name.
