Documentation

The numerical simulations presented in this paper were run with the geodynamics code ASPECT (https://aspect.geodynamics.org/).

ASPECT version

The ASPECT input files provided in this repository correspond to commit a1f0aa5 of the ASPECT branch

https://github.com/EstherHeck/aspect/tree/fastscape_update_again

This branch is built on commit 84d40e7 of the ASPECT main version, which can be found at https://github.com/geodynamics/aspect. A copy of a1f0aa5 can be found in the folder /src.

Additional ASPECT plugins

For the initial model conditions, we used the ASPECT plugins in the folder /plugins. The file CMakeLists.txt can be used to install these plugins as shared libraries against your ASPECT installation.

ASPECT input file

The ASPECT input file can be found in the folder /prms.
