WATIN—A COMPUTER PROGRAM FOR GENERATING INPUT FILES FOR WATEQF

Abstract
WATIN is a FORTRAN 77 program for creating and modifying input files of analytical data for WATEQF, the aqueous geochemical speciation/saturation model. WATIN uses menus to display information about the data file and to accept new information from the user. In addition to providing basic editing functions, WATIN provides default values for WATEQF parameters and checks for errors and inconsistencies in the data file. WATIN simplifies and streamlines access to WATEQF for both researchers and students, and along with WATEQF, can be an important part of a geochemical data analysis system.
