Abstract: | |
SUM3 was developed as a sensitivity/uncertainty tool for use with the Multimedia Environmental Pollutant Assessment System (MEPAS) and other environmental model software. MEPAS is a tool for a deterministic evaluation of the magnitude of potential human health impacts resulting from the transport and exposure of chemical and radioactive materials. SUM3 allows a probabilistic evaluation of the distributions of these impacts based on variations of input parameters. A sensitivity analysis with SUM3 identifies the influence and importance of key parameters that dominate the overall uncertainty. An uncertainty analysis provides a quantitative estimate of uncertainties in the results and helps define the relative conservatism of the deterministic results. |
