Daily Based Morgan–Morgan–Finney (DMMF) Soil Erosion Model

Description

Implements the daily based Morgan–Morgan–Finney (DMMF) soil erosion model for estimating surface runoff and sediments budgets from a field or a catchment on a daily basis.

Details

This package is the implementation of the daily based Morgan–Morgan–Finney (DMMF) soil erosion model to estimate surface runoff and sediment budget of a field and a catchment on a daily basis.

The DMMF model is one of the variant of the widely used Morgan–Morgan–Finney soil erosion model and largely based on the modified MMF model with several modifications (see details in Choi et al. (2017)).

This R implementation of the DMMF model is suitable for estimating surface runoff and sediment budgets of fields or catchments represented by raster.

The package provides the DMMF function that estimates surface runoff and soil erosion using DMMF model, DMMF_Simple function which is the simpler version of the DMMF and SinkFill function that generates sink free map for the DMMF model based on the sink fill algorithm from Wang and Liu (2006) and the SAGA-GIS module of “Module Fill Sinks (Wang & Liu)” by Volker Wichmann (2007).

Sinkfill algorithm based on Wang and Liu (2006)

Description

Implementation of sinkfill algorithm based on Wang and Liu (2006).

Usage

SinkFill( DEM, Boundary, min_angle = 0.00001)

Arguments

DEM

RasterLayer object of digital elevation model (DEM) which needs sinkfill for DMMF model

Boundary

RasterLayer object for setting the locations of local sinks in the DEM, if Boundary is missing, every boundary cells of the map are set as potential sinks of the map.

min_angle

Numeric object of angle to make slope between cells (unit: rad)

Details

The function is the implementation of sink-fill algorithm from Wang and Liu (2006), which is already implemented as a SAGA-GIS module (see Wichmann (2007)).
The function SinkFill is modified from the original algorithm with including the option to set the initial boundary manually (e.g., global sink of the field).

Value

If Boundary is missing, function automatically identifies internal and external boundary of the input DEM which is in contact with cells having NaN value. The output of the function SinkFill is a list of RasterLayer objects of the sinkfilled DEM ($nosink) and partitions ($partition) of the area for the DMMF model.
