Linking water quality and aquatic life
AQUATOX models the fate of various pollutants.
AQUATOX is a simulation model for aquatic systems. AQUATOX predicts the fate of various pollutants, such as nutrients and organic chemicals, and their effects on the ecosystem, including fish, invertebrates, and aquatic plants. This model is a valuable tool for ecologists, biologists, water quality modelers, and anyone involved in performing ecological risk assessments for aquatic ecosystems.
Release 2.2 of AQUATOX is now available. Release 2.2 contains several minor enhancements over Release 2.1, which had greatly enhanced nutrient fate and toxics effects analysis.
AQUATOX Release 2 underwent an external peer review in late 2002.
