Explore Earth's surface with community software! The Community Surface Dynamics Modeling System (CSDMS) is a diverse community of experts promoting the modeling of earth surface processes by developing, supporting, & disseminating integrated software modules that predict the movement of fluids, & the flux of sediments & solutes in landscapes & sedimentary basins. CSDMS promotes open source science and FAIR research standards. https://csdms.colorado.edu/wiki/Main_Page
