# StratigraPy

StratigraPy is a Python package for stratigraphic modeling based on [Landlab](https://github.com/landlab/landlab). Similarly to Landlab, StratigraPy favors flexibility for prototyping and teaching rather than speed.

StratigraPy is still experimental and under heavy development.

## Installation

You can directly install StratigraPy from pip:

    pip install stratigrapy

Or from GitHub using pip:

    pip install git+https://github.com/grongier/stratigrapy.git

To run the Jupyter notebook in [examples](examples) you will also need tqdm, cmocean, pyvista, trame, trame-vtk, trame-vuetify, and jupyter, which you can install from pip too:

    pip install tqdm cmocean pyvista trame trame-vtk trame-vuetify jupyter

You can also install everything using conda and the `environment.yml` file included in this repository:

    conda env create -f environment.yml

## Usage

StratigraPy follows Landlab's API and you can check [Landlab's extensive documentation](https://landlab.csdms.io) to get an idea of its features. Here's a very basic example of setting up and running a model:

```
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
from stratigrapy import RasterModelGrid
from stratigrapy.components import GravityDrivenRouter

# Create the grid with two sediment classes
grid = RasterModelGrid((50, 50),
                       xy_spacing=(500., 500.),
                       number_of_classes=2,
                       initial_allocation=1020,
                       number_of_layers_to_fuse=20,
                       number_of_top_layers=20)
grid.set_closed_boundaries_at_grid_edges(True, True, True, False)

# Define the initial topography
elevation = grid.add_zeros('topographic__elevation', at='node', clobber=True)
elevation[grid.y_of_node > 15000.] = 100.

# Define the bathymetry
bathymetry = grid.add_zeros('bathymetric__depth', at='node', clobber=True)

# Define a diffusion component
gdr = GravityDrivenRouter(grid, diffusivity_cont=[2e-1, 2e-2])

# Run the simulation
for i in range(1000):
    gdr.run_one_step(100.)
    grid.stacked_layers.fuse(time=np.mean)
grid.stacked_layers.fuse(finalize=True, time=np.mean)

# Plot a slice through the domain with sediments and bedrock
fig, ax = plt.subplots(figsize=(8, 4))
pc = grid.plot_layers(ax, 'composition', i_class=1, mask_wedges=True, cmap='pink', zorder=2)
fig.colorbar(pc[0], ax=ax, label='Fraction of the second sediment class')
raster_y = grid.y_of_node[grid.core_nodes].reshape(grid.cell_grid_shape)[:, 24]
raster_z = grid.at_node['topographic__elevation'][grid.core_nodes].reshape(grid.cell_grid_shape)[:, 24]
ymin, ymax = ax.get_ylim()
ax.fill_between(raster_y, raster_z, ymin, color='#d9d9d9', zorder=1)
ax.set(xlabel='y (m)', ylabel='z (m)', ylim=(ymin, ymax));
```

You can find more complete examples in the folder [examples](examples).
