Preliminary concepts

Reference frames

Change relative to a single layer versus change relative to surface


In [ ]:

Role of assumptions

model assumptions - model only valid as assumptions;

assumptions may be necessary due to available data

Environmental change versus dynamical assemblage forming processes


In [ ]:

Steady-state


In [ ]:

Choice of processes

Omit processes if necessary

Probably split up sediment column by processes in action

In [ ]:

Mass balance/test continuity

Environmental change versus dynamical assemblage forming process

Steady state

Burial as advection
