The MT3D Calculate Mass dialog allows the calculation of the mass of a contaminant in the entire model domain or in the selected cells.

Definition

Explains the formula that is used to calculate the mass. Basically, the volume of water in each cell is calculated and then multiplied by the concentration computed by MT3D. A conversion factor must be supplied so that the calculated mass will be computed in the correct units.

Concentration Range

Allows the specification a range over which the mass will be calculated. This is most useful to ignore negative concentrations that result in MT3D simulations.

Conversion Factor

The factor determines which units the resulting mass will be displayed in.
