Country of Origin: United States Abstract: Methods and models used to estimate the radiation doses to a returning population of the atolls in the Marshall Islands are presented. In this environment natural processes have acted on source-term radionuclides for nearly 30 years. The data bases developed for the models, and the results of the radiological dose analyses at the various atolls are described. The major radionuclides in order of their contribution to the total estimated doses were /sup 137/Cs, /sup 90/Sr, /sup 239/ /sup 240/Pu, /sup 241/Am, and /sup 60/Co. Exposure pathways in order of their contribution to the estimated doses were: terrestrial food chain, external ..gamma.., marine food chain, inhalation, figures, and cistern water and ground water. 16 tables. 56 references, 13 Major Descriptors: *DRINKING WATER ~-- CONTAMINATION; *FOOD CHAINS -CONTAMINATION; *GROUND WATER -- CONTAMINATION; *HUMAN POPULATIONS -RADIATION DOSES; *MARSHALL ISLANDS -- NUCLEAR EXPLOSIONS Descriptors: ADULTS; AMERICIUM 241; CESIUM 137; CHILDREN; COBALT 60; DATA COMPTLATION; DIET; DOSE EQUIVALENTS; ENVIRONMENTAL EXPOSURE PATHWAY; GAMMA RADIATION; INHALATION; PLUTONIUM 239; PLUTONIUM 240; STRONTIUM 90 Broader Terms: ACTINIDE ISOTOPES; ACTINIDE NUCLEI; AGE GROUPS; ALKALI METAL ISOTOPES; ALKALINE EARTH ISOTOPES; ALPHA DECAY RADIOISOTOPES; AMERICIUM ISOTOPES; BETA DECAY RADIOISOTOPES; BETA-MINUS DECAY RADIOISOTOPES; CESIUM ISOTOPES; COBALT ISOTOPES; DATA; DOSES; ELECTROMAGNETIC RADIATION; EVEN-EVEN NUCLEI; EVEN-ODD NUCLEI; EXPLOSIONS; HEAVY NUCLEI; HYDROGEN COMPOUNDS; INFORMATION; INTAKE; INTERMEDIATE MASS NUCLEI; INTERNAL CONVERSION RADIOISOTOPES; IONIZING RADIATIONS; ISLANDS; ISOMERIC TRANSITION ISOTOPES; ISOTOPES; MICRONESIA; MINUTES LIVING RADIOISOTOPES; NUCLEI; NUMERICAL DATA; OCEANIA; ODD-EVEN NUCLEI; ODD-ODD NUCLEI; OXYGEN COMPOUNDS; PLUTONIUM ISOTOPES; POPULATIONS; RADIATIONS; RADIOISOTOPES; STRONTIUM ISOTOPES; WATER; YEARS LIVING RADIOISOTOPES Subject Categories: 510302* -- Environment, Terrestrial -- Radioactive Materials Monitoring & Transport -- Terrestrial Ecosystems & Food Chains 520302 -- (-1987) -- Environment, Aquatic -- Radioactive Materials Monitoring & Transport -- Aquatic Ecosystems & Food Chains -- (-1987) 500300 -- Environment, Atmospheric -- Radioactive Materials Monitoring & Transport -- (-1988) 10/5/641 01562049 Author(s): (Item 341 from file: EDB-85-068823 Bruton, 103) & H.C.
