Sandia Sorption Data Management System, Version 2 (SSDMS II): User's manual
The Sandia Sorption Data Management System (SSDMS II) stores and retrieves trace element sorption data. The data management system has potential applications in performance assessment studies of transuranic high- and low-level, and toxic waste sites. The current version stores information describing the degree of sorption, the compositions of rocks and solutions used in the sorption experiment, and the experimental procedures. This User's Manual describes SSDMS II data searches, creation of new data files, and the merging of new with existing data base files. These extended data bases can be used to examine relationships among experimental variables, mineralogy of the substrate, water composition, and sorption ratios. Examples of using SSDMS II with a data base of radionuclide sorption data are given. 3 figs., 13 tabs.
