Short summary
We run many computer models that describe how landscapes evolve through time. We change how randomness (noise) is added to the models to explore how it affects the shapes and properties of the final landscape. We add different types of noise at the start, during, and at the end of models, aiming to mimic reality. The range of shapes and properties produced from different noises can be as large as ranges possibly caused by climate, but running many models can help with measuring this uncertainty.
