Distributions of transverse energy, forward energy, and {ital dE}{sub {ital T}}/{ital d}{eta} from 60{ital A} GeV and 200{ital A} GeV {sup 16}O-induced and 200{ital A} GeV {sup 32}S-induced nuclear collision with Al, Cu, Ag, and Au are calculated by a high energy nuclear collision model and compared to recent experimental data from the WA80 Collaboration at CERN. The high energy nuclear collision Monte Carlo model which is based on the concept of independent multiple nucleon-nucleon collisions, describes the experimental data at forward-rapidity and midrapidity well.
