# SIBERIA: Tectonics Parameters

The parameters controlling the large scale tectonic forcings on the system

SIBERIA parameter number | SIBERIA parameter name | Dialog Descriptor | Explanation
9 | ModeUp | Mode for Tectonic Uplift Model | Mode for tectonic uplift in model ModeUp=0: the default model, spatially uniform pulse uplift over time 'notch' Modeup=1: Sinusoidal uplift with amplitude 'Tamp', period 'TPeriod 'and initial phase 'Tphase'. Spatially uniform. ModeUp=2: Square wave with parameters as for sinusoidal ModeUp=3: impulse uplift with height Tamp, period Tperiod and initial phase Tphase. ModeUp=4: Regions of spatially varied uplift model (input in uplift model file)
-3 | Uplift | Input File: Tectonic Uplift Model | Uplift Model File A supplementary file from which uplift data is read in the more advanced tectonic uplift models.
6 | TimeUp | Duration of tectonic uplift | The time from the start of the simulation for which the tectonics model will be active. For time > TimeUp the tectonics model is turned off.
46 | SInit | Initial elevation for blank runs and total uplift for other runs | The initial uplift in ModeUp=0 for blank runs (wher no .RST2 is input initailly). The total uplift that occurs over time='notch' for runs where a .RST2 file is input.
49 | notch | Duration of total uplift for uplift solver | For runs where a .RST2 file is input this is time over which the uplift 'Sinit' in applied. i.e. the landform is uplifted at a rate of Sinit per notch time units (NOTE: TimeUp specifies when the uplift ends)
32 | TAmp | Amplitude of the cyclic uplift (m) | For ModeUp=1,2,3 the amplitude of the cyclic uplift
33 | TPeriod | Period of the cyclic uplift (years) | For ModeUp=1,2,3 the period of the cyclic uplift
34 | TPhase | Phase of the cyclic uplift (t=0, radians) | For ModeUp=1,2,3 the initial phase of the cyclic uplift
