Quasi-two-layer morphodynamic model for bedload-dominated problems: bed slope-induced morphological diffusion

We derive a two-layer depth-averaged model of sediment transport and morphological evolution for application to bedload-dominated problems. The near-bed transport region is represented by the lower (bedload) layer which has an arbitrarily constant, vanishing thickness (of approx. 10 times the sedime...
