AgDegNormalFault
This is used to calculate aggradation and degradation of a river reach using the normal flow approximation; with an extension for calculation of the response to a sudden fault along the reach.
Model introduction
This program computes 1D bed variation in rivers due to differential sediment transport in which it is possible to allow the bed to undergo a sudden vertical fault of a specified amount, at a specified place and time. Faulting is realized by moving all notes downstream of the specified point downward by the amount of the faulting. It uses the same principles of AgDegNormal model but with extension for calculation of the response to a sudden fault along the reach.
Model parameters
Uses ports
This will be something that the CSDMS facility will add
Provides ports

Main equations

Notes
The sediment is assumed to be uniform with size D. All sediment transport is assumed to occur in a specified fraction of time during which the river is in flood, specified by an intermittency. A Manning-Strickler formulation is used for bed resistance. A generic relation of the general form of that due to Meyer-Peter and Muller is used for sediment transport. The flow is computed using the normal flow approximation.
If the channel slope is negative and the water depth is not a number, “nan”, check the time step and the spatial step length. In particular, the time step may be too large or equivalently the spatial step length may be too small. Change these values and run the model again.
