Dataset: Ultra-sensitivity of Numerical Landscape Evolution Models to their Initial Conditions

Dataset

Description

This dataset contains experimental measurements used in the paper, "Ultra-sensitivity of Numerical Landscape Evolution Models to their Initial Conditions." (to be submitted).

The data is taken from experimental runs in a miniature landscape model named the eXperimental Landscape Evolution (XLE) facility. In this facility, we complete five >24hr runs at 5 minute temporal resolution. Every five minutes, an planform image was capture, and a digital elevation model (DEM) was generated. For each run, images and a corresponding animation of images are documented. In addition,ASCII formatted DEMs along with color hillshade maps were generated. The hillshade map images were also made into an animation.
