FLUVER2

Our 2D and semi-3D framework for the FLUVER2 and LIMTER-TERRAS models are available for research involving river profile or river gradient analysis for long term (>100 ka) fluvial modelling, and the modelling of development, preservation and possible altitudes of river terraces. See references to case studies below for the potential of our FLUVER2 methodologies!
The tool is useful for geomorphologists, geologists and policy makers who want to understand fluvial processes in relation to climate change, tectonics and sea level changes.
