Animations of models presented in Wolf et al.: Tectonics and Surface Processes during collisional orogenesis - Exploring the parameter space of the Beaumont number

Model animations for: Wolf et al.: Tectonics and Surface Processes during collisional orogenesis - Exploring the parameter space of the Beaumont number

The model animations show from bottom to top: a zoom of the tectonic model, the corresponding surface of the landscape evolution model, the swath profile of the landscape, and the uplift and erosion rates. The tectonic model shows the material colors (see legend in Appendix of the article), and the temperature field displayed with the, 100°C, 350°C, 550°C, and 700°C isotherms. The parameter values have following units: fluvial erodiblity K_f is in 1×10⁻⁵ m^0.2/yr, crustal strength F_int is in 1×10¹² N/m, convergence rate v_c is in cm/yr, and crustal thickness z_dec is in km.
