Modelling of Anthropogenic Substances in Aquatic Systems: MASAS — A Personal Computer Approach

  • Conference paper

  • 118 Accesses

Summary

Mathematical models for evaluating the dynamic behaviour of anthropogenic substances in aquatic systems (MASAS) are being developed and implemented on a personal computer. The MASAS system will allow the user to construct models of increasing complexity for lakes, rivers, and groundwater aquifers, and to build up compound and system libraries. In this paper, the general concept of the MASAS system is described and a summary of the present status of implementation is given.
