Brief Description of Model Grid.

This 1D model utilizes multiple sediment classes to illustrate sediment distribution and concentration during steady-state conditions, with 21 timesteps. In this test run of Sed_Toy, two cohesive sediment grain size classes are input into the model (0.01mm and 0.005mm). The .01mm sediment class begins on/within the sediment bed at the start of the model; whereas the .005mm grains are found only in the water column. As the model progresses sediment grains settle and/or become suspended, thereby ending with a mixed grained sediment bed at the end of the model run. Sediment concentration profiles can be extracted throughout the time frame for model result comparisons.
