If the dye computational option is selected as shown in Figure 1 2387596 then the user may assign a "decay" rate to the otherwise conservative tracer.

The "dye" constituent may also be used as an "age of water" function to compute residence times and visualize domain/boundary water mixing if this option is selected. This option is available in EFDC_DSI EFDCPlus only.

See Apply Cell Properties via Polygons as to how to apply cell properties via polygons with the Dye button in the Initial Conditions frame.
