How does Landlab compare to Badlands or TopoToolbox?

Landlab is preferred for modular, Python-native component-based modeling, whereas Badlands focuses on basin-scale stratigraphy and TopoToolbox is a mature MATLAB-based alternative.

What is the Landlab skill for Claude Code?

It is a specialized capability that provides Claude with the domain knowledge and code patterns to build landscape evolution models using the Landlab Python library.

Which grid types can I use with this skill?

You can implement regular RasterModelGrid, HexModelGrid for isotropic flow, VoronoiDelaunayGrid for irregular points, and NetworkModelGrid for channel-only modeling.

Does this skill support real-world DEM data?

Yes, it includes guidance for loading and saving topographic data using ESRI ASCII and NetCDF formats for use in geomorphic simulations.

Builds 2D numerical models for landscape evolution, erosion, hydrology, and geomorphology using the Landlab Python framework.

This skill empowers Claude to simulate complex geological and geomorphological processes by leveraging the Landlab library. It enables the creation of modular landscape evolution models (LEMs) that incorporate river erosion, hillslope diffusion, and water flow routing across various grid geometries. Whether you are analyzing drainage networks, modeling soil production, or simulating long-term topographic changes from uplift and climate, this skill provides the patterns and domain-specific guidance needed for accurate surface process modeling and terrain analysis.
