One-line model description Landlab component for 2-D calculation of fluvial sediment transport and bedrock erosion
Extended model description The Landlab SPACE (Stream Power with Alluvium Conservation and Entrainment) enables modeling of bedrock, alluviated, and bedrock-alluvial rivers by simultaneously conserving mass in three reservoirs: the water column, the alluvial bed, and the underlying bedrock. SPACE allows dynamic transitions between detachment-limited, transport-limited, and intermediate states. SPACE calculates sediment fluxes, alluvial layer thickness, and bedrock erosion at all nodes within the model domain. An extended description of the model may be found in Shobe et al (2017, Geoscientific Model Development).

Describe input parameters [[Describe input parameters model::This component operates on a Landlab RasterModelGrid instance, and requires that the user has downloaded and installed Landlab. 
   Parameters
   ----------
   grid : ModelGrid
       Landlab ModelGrid object
   K_sed : float
       Erodibility constant for sediment (units vary).
   K_br : float
       Erodibility constant for bedrock (units vary).
   F_f : float
       Fraction of permanently suspendable fines in bedrock [-].
   phi : float
       Sediment porosity [-].
   H_star : float
       Sediment thickness required for full entrainment [L].
   v_s : float
       Effective settling velocity for chosen grain size metric [L/T].
   m_sp : float
       Drainage area exponent (units vary)
   n_sp : float
       Slope exponent (units vary)
   sp_crit_sed : float
       Critical stream power to erode sediment [E/(TL^2)]
   sp_crit_br : float
       Critical stream power to erode rock [E/(TL^2)]
   method : string
       Either "simple_stream_power", "threshold_stream_power", or
       "stochastic_hydrology". Method for calculating sediment
       and bedrock entrainment/erosion.         
   discharge_method : string
       Either "area_field" or "discharge_field". If using stochastic
       hydrology, determines whether component is supplied with
       drainage area or discharge.
   area_field : string or array
       Used if discharge_method = 'area_field'. Either field name or
       array of length(number_of_nodes) containing drainage areas [L^2].
   discharge_field : string or array
       Used if discharge_method = 'discharge_field'.Either field name or
       array of length(number_of_nodes) containing drainage areas [L^2/T].
   solver : string
       Solver to use. Options at present include:
           (1) 'basic' (default): explicit forward-time extrapolation.
               Simple but will become unstable if time step is too large.
           (2) 'adaptive': subdivides global time step as needed to
               prevent slopes from reversing and alluvium from going
               negative.]]

Describe processes represented by the model Fluvial sediment erosion and deposition, fluvial bedrock erosion, the bedrock cover effect.
Describe key physical parameters and equations The key equations and parameters are described in Shobe et al (2017, Geoscientific Model Development).
Describe length scale and resolution constraints Length scale should be reach or larger (~100m and up). Run time depends on grid size and resolution.
Describe time scale and resolution constraints Time scale will be set by discharge calculation method. The model is in general intended for annual to geological time scales, but shorter time scales may be used if Landlab dynamic flow routing components are employed.
Describe any numerical limitations and issues Becomes very slow if run on domains with pits. Options include filling pits before running the model, or using the Landlab DepressionFinderAndRouter.


Describe available calibration data sets The model is tested against three known analytical solutions (see Shobe et al., 2017 for details).
