MacLeod M von Waldow H Tay P Armitage JM Wöhrnschimmel H Riley WJ McKone TE Hungerbuhler K 2011 We present two new software implementations of the BETR Global multimedia contaminant fate model. The model uses steady-state or non-steady-state mass-balance calculations to describe the fate and transport of persistent organic pollutants using a desktop computer. The global environment is described using a database of long-term average monthly conditions on a 15°×15° grid. We demonstrate BETR Global by modeling the global sources, transport, and removal of decamethylcyclopentasiloxane (D5). application/pdf https://sonar.ch/global/documents/143228 eng info:eu-repo/semantics/altIdentifier/doi/10.1016/j.envpol.2011.01.038 info:eu-repo/semantics/altIdentifier/pmid/21353357 info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess Environmental pollution (Barking, Essex : 1987). - 2011 Algorithms Databases as Topic Environment Environmental Pollutants Models, Chemical Siloxanes Software BETR global--a geographically-explicit global-scale multimedia contaminant fate model. http://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501
