Fastscape

Software tools for landscape evolution modeling

[Fastscape @fastscape]

New (big) release ! 🎉

[Benoît Bovy @benbovy]

It took a long time, but finally I’m glad to announce a new release (re-written from scratch) of Fastscapelib: a core library for landscape evolution modelling

Some highlights 🧵 (1/8)

Last summer for @GFZ_SurfMod's contribution to LNDW23, #fastscape was used together with Jupyter widgets to create a special kind of photo booth. A fun way to show how landscape evolution models work!

📢Tectonic Modelling Tuesday #40 - cool numerical work by @GrardBenjamin2 & co. (from @Univ_Toulouse @LPG_Lab @uibgeo @GeosciencesR @TotalEnergies @GFZ_SurfMod) exploring how inherited foreland relief affects retro-foreland basin architecture!😃

Do you want to hear how a landscape near steady-state condition sounds like? 🔊🔊⛰️🔊🔊

[Benoît Bovy @benbovy]

As a last example, a landscape evolution simulation made with @fastscape where the frequencies of two oscillators are modulated by the uplift vs erosion rates (we can here the interference near the steady-state).

Our new single “1 to 6” (with my band mates #Roscoe) is out today!

I had a lot of fun doing a video clip using @fastscape and @matplotlib!

@michaelaye @LoriKFenton Not yet but that would be a great addition! Fastscape is easily extensible via its Python/Xarray-simlab interface.

Check out my talk on using the ASPECT-FastScape coupling to model a new type of flexural strike-slip basin, and briefly on applying orographic controls to 2D compression and subduction models with @sasbrune and @MichaPons @fastscape @cigeodynamics https://t.co/ML9laaJoFO

[Boris Gailleton @boris_gailleton]

Just wanted to share the fun I'm having feeding @fastscape with a 3D folded landscape (w differential erodibility and diffusion). Top is the "geological map" and bottom is the water flux

[Michaël Pons @MichaPons]

My colleague Derek Neuharth is coupling @fastscape LEM to the #ASPECT geodynamics code, we ran a quick subduction test, this is a step forward in modelling the interplay of deep and surface processes. Find more details below.

Couldn't wait to update and release ipyfastscape 0.2.0!

3D Visualization of topographic data and landscape evolution model outputs with ipygany.

[Benoît Bovy @benbovy]

It can also be used for visualizing DEM data / derived data (not only model outputs), like terrain attributes here computed with @LSDTopoTools

[Benoît Bovy @benbovy]

Since it uses #xarray Datasets, it works seamlessly with @landlabtoolkit too (the example below is based on the LithoLayers component).

[Benoît Bovy @benbovy]

FWIW today, I've released ipyfastscape, which provides interactive widgets (#ipywidgets, #ipygany) for topographic data analysis and modelling in #jupyter notebooks (3D visualization!).

Below is an example from @fastscape model runs.

[Benoît Bovy @benbovy]

Just updated the example with a @fastscape erosion model run from the extracted topography 😀
