Design of the MEPAS Surface Water (Non-Tidal River) Transport Module
The purpose of the MEPAS Surface Water Transport Module is to simulate the migration and fate of chemical and radionuclide constituents through non-tidal rivers. The module is designed to allow for linking to subsequent media (e.g., another river section or a wetland), should these features become a requirement for a later version of the Framework for Risk Analysis in Multimedia Environmental Systems (FRAMES). A full description of the design parameters, as well as scientific formulations for the various models, can be found in Whelan and McDonald, 1996 (PNNL-11176) and accessed online by following this link:
