Methods and systems for modeling subsurface formations

A system comprising:

• a processor;
• a memory coupled to the processor;
• and
• instructions provided to the memory, wherein the instructions are executable by the processor to cause a system to:
• analyze at least one strata within a stratigraphic structure of a formation to ascertain one or more physical properties for the at least one strata;
• correlate the one or more physical properties for the at least one strata to one or more formative hydraulic and sediment transport parameters for the at least one strata based on a correlation;
• model deposition of particulate matter during formation of the stratigraphic structure using a model constrained by the one or more formative hydraulic and sediment transport parameters to yield a three-dimensional model of the stratigraphic structure of the formation;
• and
• condition the three-dimensional model using the one or more physical properties for the at least one strata.
