Fluvial Landscape Evolution Model

Landscape evolution models are commonly used to study the Earth's surface response to changes in environmental conditions. The DAC (Divide And Capture) landscape evolution model was designed to explore the reorganization of fluvial drainage networks and migration of water divides. The current model output shows the geometry of an asymmetric mountain range formed in response to tectonic tilting by continuous main water divide migration over millions of years.​
