“Material” is the term used in Ecolego to identify the modelled items, for example contaminants like radionuclides or chemicals. In other software and literature, material is sometimes referred to as “species”. | “Material” is the term used in Ecolego to identify the modelled items, for example contaminants like radionuclides or chemicals.

Requires [[Radionuclide_Toolbox|Radionuclide Toolbox]]. A radionuclide is a special type of material which also has radioactive properties such as half life, element, atomic number etc. When you add radionuclides to your model, Ecolego will automatically handle nuclide decay and in-growth. | Requires [[Radionuclide_Toolbox|Radionuclide Toolbox]].
