10 km2, Strahler 3 Mesh, Outlet 1, Rivers only, 30% buffer#

Note

This page and its static assets are auto-generated by python -m tools.doc_gallery. The Sphinx build only reads committed PNG and JSON artifacts.

This case is reserved for a catchment mesh where geology is removed from the internal constraint set, but the watershed boundary, support extent, and outside de-refinement stay aligned with the standard gallery workflow.

Case Setup#

  • Scale target: 10 km2.

  • Outlet identifier: 1.

  • Gallery variant: Rivers only, 30% buffer.

  • Bundle-reported constraints mode: rivers_only.

What It Shows#

  • How the river network alone structures the internal conformal mesh when geology is not enforced.

  • How the same buffered watershed support can be compared fairly against the geology-plus-rivers variant.

  • How outside coarsening still protects the basin focus while simplifying the external region.

Key Metrics#

  • Nodes: 296

  • Cells: 574

  • River edges: 90

  • Geology interfaces: 83

Reproduce#

Run the underlying example or validation case with:

python -m tools.doc_gallery

Refresh the committed gallery artifacts with:

python -m tools.doc_gallery
