Abstract
Cellular automata (CA) and lattice Boltzmann (LB) approaches are computatio nal methods that offer flexibility, efficiency and outstanding amenability to parallelism when modeling complex. phenomena. In this paper, the CA and LB approach are combined in the same model, in order to describe a system w here point-particles are transported in a fluid how This model is used to s imulate the snow transport, erosion and deposition by the wind.
