AeoLiS

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.

Installation

Requirements:

Python 3.9 or newer
pip 22.0 or newer
netCDF4

Installing from PyPI

pip install aeolis

For Windows users, the recommend way to install AeoLiS is to use Anaconda.

Installing from source

Clone the repository using Git, or download the source code.
AeoLiS users may install the package with only the required dependencies. Go to aeolis-python directory and install using pip
```
cd aeolis-python/
pip install .
```
AeoLiS users who intend to modify the sourcecode can install additional dependencies for test and documentation as follows. Go to root directory aeolis-python/ and:
```
pip install -e .[dev]
```

Running AeoLiS

Examples from command line:

aeolis run <path/to/aeolis.txt/>
# or wind module
aeolis wind <path/to/wind.txt> --mean=6 --duration=3600
