INPUT DATASETS

Magnitude of fluvial nourishment in the Wax Lake Delta for a range of environmental conditions and choices of θ. The magnitude of nourishment increases from white to red, with topography shown in the background for context. For all rows, θ increases from 0 (left) to 2 (right). The corresponding environmental conditions are, respectively (a–c) low-discharge and no tides (d–f) high-discharge and no tides (g–i) low-discharge with tides, and (j–l) high-discharge with tides.
