CSDMS: Community Surface Dynamics Modeling System
The CSDMS Project is an NSF-funded international effort that involves modeling the dynamic interface between lithosphere, hydrosphere, cryosphere, and atmosphere. The main goal of the project is to develop a suite of modular numerical models able to simulate the evolution of landscapes and sedimentary basins, on time scales ranging from individual events to many millions of years. This collaboration focuses on CCA tools support and extensions to enable the creation of the suite of CCA components for surface dynamics modeling.
Collaboration Status: Active

TASCS Contact: Boyana Norris, ANL, norris@mcs.anl.gov
Collaboration Summary: Support with the use of CCA technology in defining a suite of modules for earth surface dynamics simulations.
Collaboration Notes:
The OpenMI interface enables interoperability between general surface dynamics models. A prototype SIDL definition for OpenMI has been created, based on which several CCA components have been successfully implemented.
