CALINE4 Manual
(1989 Research Report)

About the Manual

The CALINE4 MANUAL (June 1989 update) is available as a package of Microsoft Word™ files, or as a scanned PDF (Adobe Reader™) document. Printed copies are no longer available from Caltrans. This report is the only documentation for use of CALINE4 without the CL4 user interface. Source code for the program can not be distributed at this time.

Caltrans supports use of CALINE4 only through CO Protocol procedures using the CL4 user interface. This document is provided only as a service to those who wish to investigate use of CALINE4 in other ways. As described in the Manual, CALINE4 (the command-line model, not the model with the CL4 user interface) can be used for line-source dispersion analysis of carbon monoxide (CO), nitrogen dioxide (NO2), particulate matter (PM), and general inert gases.

The Microsoft Word™ files should be searchable (with the exception of some embedded graphics). The first file should always be downloaded, whether or not Chapters 1-6 are needed, since some graphics used in other parts of the report are located there. Instructions regarding the directory structure needed for correct linking of the files is contained in the README file that is part of the first archive. The directory structure may require administrator access to set up in modern Windows™ computers. Expect to find some anomalies in the Word files due to the OCR process, such as mistakes in the text from mis-scanning, subscripts in the text not appearing as subscripts, etc.
