ErosionDeposition


Metadata

Also known as Landlab ErosionDeposition component
Model type Single
Model part of larger framework
Note on status model
Date note status model
Incorporated models or components:
Spatial dimensions 2D
Spatial extent Continental, Regional-Scale, Landscape-Scale, Watershed-Scale, Reach-Scale
Model domain Terrestrial
One-line model description Landlab component for fluvial erosion/deposition.
Extended model description The Landlab ErosionDeposition component calculates fluvial erosion and deposition of a single substrate as derived by Davy and Lague (2009, Journal of Geophysical Research). Mass is simultaneously conserved in two reservoirs: the bed and the water column. ErosionDeposition dynamically transitions between detachment-limited and transport-limited behavior, but is limited to erosion of a single substrate (e.g., sediment or bedrock but not both).

Describe input parameters [[Describe input parameters model::Parameters
       ----------
       grid : ModelGrid
           Landlab ModelGrid object
       K : float
           Erodibility constant for substrate (units vary).
       phi : float
           Sediment porosity [-].
       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 : float
           Critical stream power to erode substrate [E/(TL^2)]
       F_f : float
           Fraction of eroded material that turns into "fines" that do not
           contribute to (coarse) sediment load. Defaults to zero.
       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': adaptive time-step solver that estimates a 
                   stable step size based on the shortest time to "flattening"
                   among all upstream-downstream node pairs.]]
