DOE National Atmospheric Release Advisory Center (NARAC) – The DOE NARAC provides a computer-based emergency preparedness and response predictive modeling capability. The NARAC is an off-site resource that supports the incident response remotely. NARAC provides real-time computer predictions of the atmospheric transport of material from radioactive releases and of the downwind effects on health and safety. When measurement data become available, they are used to improve model predictions.
