Customized Applications of pyDeltaRCM

Below is a “model zoo” containing a list with links to customized subclasses of the pyDeltaRCM found “in the wild”. If you have a implemented a custom subclass of the model and would like us to highlight it here please reach out or open a pull request!

VegetationModel

This implementation of the pyDeltaRCM model is based off of the “DeltaRCM Vegetation” model presented in Lauzon and Murray (2018).

Faulting Models

This implementation of the pyDeltaRCM model is used in the paper Moodie and Passalacqua (2021) to simulate a deltas with faulting scaled to the Mississippi River delta and the Selenga River delta.

VariableSLRModel

This implementation of the pyDeltaRCM model is used in the paper Hariharan et al (2022) to simulate variable sea level rise scenarios.

CrateringModel

This implementation of the pyDeltaRCM model is used in the paper Moodie and Goudge (2025) to simulate interaction of fluvial-deltaic processes and crater formation/preservation.
