Erosion model program using linear diffusion, stream power with spatially
varying erodibility based on two bedrock units, and discharge proportional to
drainage area.

[docs]class BasicRt(TwoLithologyErosionModel): r"""**BasicRt** model program. This model program improves upon the :py:class:`Basic` program by allowing for two lithologies, an "upper" layer and a "lower" layer. Given a spatially varying contact zone elevation, :math:`\eta_C(x,y))`, model **BasicRt** evolves a topographic surface described by :math:`\eta` with the following governing equations: .. math:: \frac{\partial \eta}{\partial t} = - K(\eta,\eta_C) Q^{m}S^{n} + D\nabla^2 \eta K(\eta, \eta_C ) = w K_1 + (1 - w) K_2 w = \frac{1}{1+\exp \left( -\frac{(\eta -\eta_C )}{W_c}\right)} where :math:`Q` is the local stream discharge, :math:`S` is the local slope, :math:`W_c` is the contact-zone width, :math:`K_1` and :math:`K_2` are the erodabilities of the upper and lower lithologies, and :math:`D` is the regolith transport parameter. :math:`m` and :math:`n` are the discharge and slope exponent parameters. :math:`w` is a weight used to calculate the effective erodibility :math:`K(\eta, \eta_C)` based on the depth to the contact zone and the width of the contact zone. The weight :math:`w` promotes smoothness in the solution of erodibility at a given point. When the surface elevation is at the contact elevation, the erodibility is the average of :math:`K_1` and :math:`K_2`; above and below the contact, the erodibility approaches the value of :math:`K_1` and :math:`K_2` at a rate related to the contact zone width. Thus, to make a very sharp transition, use a small value for the contact zone width. Refer to `Barnhart et al. (2019) <https://doi.org/10.5194/gmd-12-1267-2019>`_ Table 5 for full list of parameter symbols, names, and dimensions.

Assesses if a :py:mod:`PrecipChanger` is an active boundary handler and if so, uses it to modify the erodibility by water. 4. Updates the spatially variable erodibility value based on the relative distance between the topographic surface and the lithology contact. 5. Calculates detachment-limited erosion by water. 6. Calculates topographic change by linear diffusion. 7. Finalizes the step using the :py:mod:`ErosionModel` base class function **finalize__run_one_step**.
