Hiding and Exposure

Single-Sized Sediment Transport

At many sites, the bed material can be characterized by a single sediment size, with other sizes or materials (shell hash) which do not contribute significantly to morphology change, but do modify the sediment transport through hiding and exposure. By assuming that the spatial distribution of the bed material composition is constant in time, a hiding and exposure correction function can be introduced to correct the critical shields parameter where is the dimensionless hiding and exposure function and is the critical shear stress of the transport grain size. In CMS, a formula similar to that of Parker et al. (1995) and others is implemented where is the grain size corresponding to the 50th percentile, and is an empirical coefficient between 0.5-1.0 (default is 0.7).

The transport grain size is specified in the Advanced Card TRANSPORT_GRAIN_SIZE. The transport grain size should be the dominant grain size in the area of interest. To change the value of another Advanced Card HIDING_EXPOSURE_COEFFICIENT. If it is desired to test the model with a constant grain size and ignore the information in the D50_DATASET, the Advanced Card CONSTANT_GRAIN_SIZE.

Multiple-Sized Sediment Transport

For nonuniform sediments, the hiding and exposure is considered using a slightly modified form of the method proposed by Wu et al. (2000) which accounts information on the whole grain size distribution.
