       abstract = "A comparison is made between differentiation alternatives for a terrain modeling
         problem, a sample application where strong non-linearities are solved iteratively. Investigated
         methods include automatic differentiation (AD) with the Odyssee software (forward and reverse modes)
         and manual differentiation (MD) using the model's adjoint equations. The comparison mainly
         focuses on accuracy and computing efficiency, as well as on development effort. While AD ensures
         perfect consistency between the computer model and its derivative at a low development cost, MD
         shows significantly lesser computing costs. We discuss the perturbation method as well as hybrid
         strategies that combine advantages of AD and MD."
