Accurate simulation and forecast for soil processes has always been a challenge river management environmental conservation. However, the sediment modeling technique remains insufficient catchments characterized by special erosion conditions, especially steep area of upper Yangtze River basin. This study presents framework that incorporates transport calculation modules into distributed hydrological model, customized modifications are applied to fit catchment conditions. In addition, accurately describe topography (e.g., slope length steepness) account its impact on process simulation, sub-basin with high yield is discretized higher spatial resolution. The presented validated in Heishuihe basin southwestern China. And results show modified version DDRM model (i.e., DDRM-SED) good performance terms flow processes. DDRM-SED multi-spatial resolution better than constant
