MODELING TIP |
Using the Background Data File Maker Utility in CALPUFF View™ |
When using CALPUFF, modelers can add hourly background concentration or deposition flux values to the modeled results before averages are processed in CALPOST. Lakes Environmental added a Background Data File Maker utility to CALPUFF View to make this process even easier.
Watch the video below for step-by-step instructions on how to use the Background Data File Maker utility.
