Entry ID: EPA_GCSOLAR

[ Update this Record ]

Summary

Abstract: The GCSOLAR program is a set of routines that computes direct photolysis rates
and half-lives of pollutants in the aquatic environment. The half-lives are
calculated as a function of season, latitude, time-of-day, depth in water
bodies, and ozone layer thickness.

This program operates in an interactive screen mode to facilitate data and
program command entry by the user. Input values, with few ...
