Rift2ridge2D: new sedimentation and topographical diffusion

01.06.2022

The new sedimentation and topographical diffusivity parametrization in rift2ridge2D , (developed within the framework of the Modelling Enabler REACTOR project) has shown to be able to generate sedimentation patterns from the proximal to the distal areas in agreement with observations provided by seismic images. Features as basement-conformal sediments, overlapped by post-rift pelagic sediment layers are now naturally modelled along the tectonic history of the margins.
