Welcome to AeoLiS’s Documentation


AeoLiS is a process-based model for simulating aeolian sediment transport in situations where supply-limiting factors are important, like in coastal environments. Supply-limitations currently supported are soil moisture contents, sediment sorting and armouring, bed slope effects, air humidity and roughness elements.

This documentation describes the Python implementation of the AeoLiS model. The source code of the Python implementation can be found in GitHub.
