DESCRIPTIONr.sim.sediment is a landscape scale, simulation model of soil erosion, sediment transport and deposition caused by flowing water designed for spatially variable terrain, soil, cover and rainfall excess conditions. The soil erosion model is based on the theory used in the USDA WEPP hillslope erosion model, but it has been generalized to 2D flow. The solution is based on the concept of duality between fields and particles and the underlying equations are solved by Green’s function Monte Carlo method, to provide robustness necessary for spatially variable conditions and high resolutions (Mitas and Mitasova 1998). Key inputs of the model include the following raster maps: elevation (elevation [m]), flow gradient given by the first-order partial derivatives of elevation field ( dx and dy), overland flow water depth (water_depth [m]), detachment capacity coefficient (detachment_coeff [s/m]), transport capacity coefficient (transport_coeff [s]), critical shear stress (shear_stress [Pa]) and surface roughness coefficient called Manning’s n (man raster map). Partial derivatives can be computed by v.surf.rst or r.slope.aspect module. The data are automatically converted from feet to metric system using database/projection information, so the elevation always should be in meters. The water depth file can be computed using r.sim.water module. Other parameters must be determined using field measurements or reference literature (see suggested values in Notes and References).Output includes transport capacity raster map
transport_capacity in [kg/ms], transport capacity limited
erosion/deposition raster map tlimit_erosion_deposition [kg/m2s]i
that are output almost immediately and can be viewed while the simulation
continues. Sediment flow rate raster map sediment_flux [kg/ms], and
net erosion/deposition raster map [kg/m2s] can take longer time depending on
time step and simulation time. Simulation time is controlled by
niterations [minutes] parameter. If the resulting erosion/deposition
map is noisy, higher number of walkers, given by nwalkers should be
used.
