===Spacing and Progradation Direction of Clinoforms===
The clinoform-modeling algorithm allows the user to specify the main progradation direction of the clinoforms and to define the intervals along the progradation path at which clinoforms are generated (i.e., the clinoform spacing). The user specifies a progradation direction relative to north, ''θ'' ([[:File:BLTN13190fig4.jpg|Figure 4C]], Table 1), along which successive clinoforms are generated, which corresponds to the progradation path of the shoreline during clinoform deposition (plan-view shoreline trajectory of Helland-Hansen and Hampson, 2009). The user also specifies the initial insertion point for the clinoforms, ''P<sub>o</sub>'' ([[:File:BLTN13190fig4.jpg|Figure 4C]]). This provides flexibility in determining where to place the initial clinoform relative to the proximal model boundary. The spacing between each clinoform surface, ''S'' (Table 1), is also designated by the user. Clinoform spacing is defined as the distance between the top-truncation points of two successive clinoforms, and it determines the origin position, ''(x<sub>origin>/sub>, y<sub>origin>/sub>)'', of successive clinoforms ([[:File:BLTN13190fig4.jpg|Figure 4D]]).
