[docs]class BasicRtTh(TwoLithologyErosionModel): r"""**BasicRtTh** model program. This model program combines the :py:class:`BasicRt` and :py:class:`BasicTh` programs by allowing for two lithologies, an "upper" layer and a "lower" layer, and permitting the use of an smooth erosion threshold for each lithology. Given a spatially varying contact zone elevation, :math:`\eta_C(x,y))`, model **BasicRtTh** evolves a topographic surface described by :math:`\eta` with the following governing equations: .. math:: \frac{\partial \eta}{\partial t} = -\left[\omega - \omega_c (1 - e^{-\omega /\omega_c}) \right] + D\nabla^2 \eta \omega = K(\eta, \eta_C) Q^{m} S^{n} K(\eta, \eta_C ) = w K_1 + (1 - w) K_2, \omega_c(\eta, \eta_C ) = w \omega_{c1} + (1 - w) \omega_{c2} 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:`m` and :math:`n` are the discharge and slope exponent parameters, :math:`W_c` is the contact-zone width, :math:`K_1` and :math:`K_2` are the erodabilities of the upper and lower lithologies, :math:`\omega_{c1}` and :math:`\omega_{c2}` are the erosion thresholds of the upper and lower lithologies, and :math:`D` is the regolith transport \parameter. :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. :math:`\omega` is the erosion rate that would be calculated without the use of a threshold and as the threshold increases the erosion rate smoothly transitions between zero and :math:`\omega`. 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.
