Session Description:
Modeling of important planetary surface processes from channel dynamics to erosion of landscapes is typically performed using a continuum framework, rather than in a framework that explicitly captures particle scale processes, necessary, in part because of the typical scale of the problem. In recent decades, experiments, field observations, and model efforts have indicated the dynamics of discrete particle interactions, sometimes referred to as “granular physics”, play an important role in the evolution of landscapes. Examples include the erosion behavior and statistics of debris flows, sorting behaviors in transported sediments, and collisional dynamics in the evolution of dune fields. This session welcomes contributions from experiments, field work and modeling work that contributes to our understanding of the importance of “granular physics” to planetary surface processes as well as the upscaling of these dynamics into continuum-like frameworks capable of representing large-scale systems.
