Country of Origin: United States Country of Publication: United States Abstract: This section describes several studies of exposed individuals and the actual in vivo measurements made at this laboratory during the past three years. In all cases, the nuclides being measured are bone seekers and were measured with NalI(T1l1)-CsI(Tl) surrounding the head. detectors above the thorax or The studies include the measurement of occupational contamination for /sup 241/Am, metabolic studies of /sup 241/Am in a child and his father, estimation of employee exposures to compounds of depleted uranium, measurements of residents of the Marshall Islands and measurement of occupational contamination for lead (Pb-210).

Subfile: INS (Technical (US Atomindex input); Information Center). ERA (Energy Research Abstracts); TIC United States Abstract: We are using a transponding geostationary satellite to collect surface environmental data to describe the fate of soil-borne radionuclides. The remote, former atomic testing grounds at the Eniwetok and Bikini Atolls present a difficult environment in which to collect continuous field data. Our land-based, solar-powered microprocessor and environmental data systems remotely acquire measurements of net and total solar radiation, rain, humidity, 9003965 Country of Origin: United States Country of Publication:
