Title: Fugacity Modelling of the Sydney Deep Water Outfall
Custodian: Environment Protection Authority NSW
Jurisdiction: New South Wales
This dataset contains the results of fugacity modelling to determine the fate of organic contaminants from the Sydney Deep Water Outfall. The model represents the real world processes by using a series of compartments which allow for the movement of chemicals between them. The models include wind and currents and allow for advection, differences in concentration, sedimentation and scavenging processes etc. The summary results are presented in the documentation. Permission to use the model and access to the model need to be arranged with the custodian. The results are part of the Sydney Deep Water Outfall Environmental Monitoring Program.
