“…Several models focus on the growth of microbialite considering the interactions of intrinsic and extrinsic factors whether at intermediate scales, namely bed-or build-up scales by combining Diffusion Limited Aggregation (DLA) and Cellular Automata (CA) [Dupraz et al, 2006, Johnson and Grotzinger, 2006, Curtis et al, 2021 or at larger scales combined with stratigraphic models [Gallois et al, 2016, Kozlowski et al, 2014, Xi et al, 2022. Several authors [Arslan et al, 2008, Dirner and Steiner, 2015, Janson and Madriz, 2012, Jung et al, 2012 propose to combine Multiple Points Simulation (MPS) with field observations and digital outcrop techniques to create 3D models.…”
