Dear Netters,

Has anyone heard of any of the following codes:
   PRZM, GLEAMS, EXAMS, and EPIC

They are presumably used for environmental modeling to
assess the fate of pollutants in the environment.

I am curious as to the models that underlie these codes.
For example, what kinetic, thermodynamic, and transport
models are used to determine how a compound partitions
between the water, ground, and atmosphere?

On a related note, what is the level of maturity of the field
of environmental modeling (probably macroscopic)
versus molecular modeling (microscopic)?

Finally, where can one obtain these codes and on which platforms
do they run?

Thanks in advance for your help.


Bill
