LISFLOOD-FP 8.0 simulation results

Configuration files and simulation result data for the Environment Agency benchmark tests and Storm Desmond simulation.

Model results are archived across several zip files; the primary zip files are:

• ea4.zip contains results of Test 4, as specified by Néelz and Pender (2013)
• ea5.zip and ea5-first-hour.zip contain results of Test 5, as specified by Néelz and Pender (2013)
• eden.zip contain results of the Storm Desmond simulation over the Eden catchment, as specified by Xia et al., 2019

Results at additional grid resolutions are provided in ea4-additional.zip, ea5-20m.zip, ea5-50m-dg2.zip, ea5-first-hour-50m-dg2.zip, and eden-resampled.zip.

Two-dimensional maps are stored in ESRI ASCII format with the following file suffixes:

.dem digital elevation model
.wd water depth
.Vx, .Vy x- and y-components of velocity
.speed magnitude of velocity
.froude Froude number
.max maximum water depth over the entire simulation

File suffixes ending 1x and 1y denote the x-slope and y-slope coefficients outputted by the DG2 solver.  One-dimensional cross-sections are denoted with a .sampleline suffix.  Further file format details are available in the LISFLOOD-FP 8.0 user manual at https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.4073011.

Model outputs are stored under directories <testcase>-<resolution>/<solver> where <testcase> is ea4, ea5 or eden, <resolution> denotes the grid resolution, and <solver> is acc (or, equivalently, acc-cpu), fv1 or dg2 (-cpu or -gpu).

ea4.zip
Outputs are saved every hour, with files denoted ea4-0000, ..., ea4-0005.  Model runtimes are saved in looptimes.dat files in the root directory.

ea5.zip
Outputs are saved every hour, with files denoted ea5-0000, ..., ea5-0030.  

ea5-first-hour.zip
Outputs are saved every five minutes for the first hour of the simulation, with files denoted ea5-0000, ..., ea5-0012.

eden.zip
Outputs are saved every hour starting at 00:00 3 December 2015, with files denoted eden-0000, ..., eden-0132.
