The '''Community Surface Dynamics Modeling System''' (CSDMS) deals with the [[Earth]]'s surface and the observable and projected changes constantly taking place. Based on the campus of the [[University of Colorado at Boulder]], the CSDMS project involves a diverse community of experts promoting the modeling of earth surface processes by working with and developing integrated software modules that predict the [[erosion]], transport, and deposition of [[sediment]] and solutes in landscapes and [[sedimentary basins]].

In early 2007 [[James Syvitski]], formerly the director of the [[Institute of Arctic and Alpine Research]] (INSTAAR), Boulder, CO and currently a professor at the University of Colorado in the Department of Geological Sciences, was awarded a multimillion-dollar cooperative agreement from the [[National Science Foundation]] (NSF) to coordinate this national effort and develop the CSDMS project.
