+<h3>Determining Cutoff Points</h3>
 <p>
-To get started with r.landscape.evol, you need to determine the appropriate values for “cutoff1”, “cutoff2”, and “cutoff3”, which are transition points between different types of erosive processes. These are in units of flow accumulation scaled to actual surface flow as determined in r.watershed from the values of rainfall and flow hindrance from vegetation. To do this, you should parameterize the module as best as possible, EXCEPT for the three "cutoffs". Then, run the module with the "-p" flag, which will make a random points vector file with the values of scaled flow accumulation (scaled to actual rainfall and vegetation), profile curvature, and tangential curvature in the associated table. Plotting the log of the scaled flow accumulation against each of these two curvatures will help you to determine reasonable values for the cutoffs, as each transition should show a unique relationship between curvature and flow accumulations. See the figures below for examp

+<h3>Note About Climate Parameters</h3>
 <p>
 r.landscape.evol accepts an external “climate file”, which should be a comma separated plain text file with four columns in the order of, "rain,R,storms,stormlength" (without headers). Each of these columns must exist, although there need not be values in every column (i.e., you can enter a single value for any of these parameters in the command line, and combine that with populated columns for the other values). Note that the climate file must have the same number of rows as there are iterations of the simulation (“years”).
