Polygons and Cells for each Layer

The intermediate scale layers need to represent tundra polygons with as few cells as possible so that a largeregion can be modeled. This differs from the fine scale layers which have more cells and higher resolution, modeling smaller regions.

Polygon set is called extended lobster and has the following polygons: 
1  2  3  4   5   6   7   8   9   10  11  12  13  14  15  16  17  18
6, 8, 9, 19, 21, 25, 27, 29, 31, 34, 35, 36, 37, 39, 45, 47, 50, 56

Lidar Elevations and location of Lobster polygons.	Lidar Elevations interpolated on to Lobster polygons.	Lobster polygons labeled by ID number.
		Size of single layer: The quadrilateral set has 259 nodes and 289 cells. The triangle set has 451 nodes and 864 cells.

Mesh Layers and Materials

These are based on mesh design for Arctic Fine Scale meshing with a short and a tall version of each mesh. The upper layers of both are the same. The tall mesh has deeper bottom and layers added.

Short Mesh layers with bottom at -1.

Tall Mesh layers with bottom at -45.
