Units for cdump deposition data

[jcream07]

Hi, what are the units for the cdump files when simulating deposition from the GUI? Thanks in advance.

The units of deposition are whatever the unit you chose for the emissions per square meters.

I set the emission rate to 1/hr for one species, but the guide says the mass units are arbitrary. So what would the units be in this case?

[ariel.stein]

if your emission rate is 1/hr then your deposition will be 1/m2 and if your emission units are in kg/hr then your deposition will be in kg/m2.

Got it, thank you.
