Abstract: This book explains the results of the 1978 radiation measurements
for the following atolls: Rongelap, Utrik, Taka, Bikar, Rongrik,
Ailinginae, Likiep, Ailuk, Jemo, Mejit, Wotho and Ujelang. It explains
the meaning of radiation, and about the radioactive particles that came
from the atomic bombs, and about their distribution in the soil of each
of these atolls. The book also gives information about the amounts of
radiation people might receive now and later from radioactivity
remaining on the atolls. (ACR);

Abstract: The purpose of this study was to determine the damage and blast

loading on Operation Greenhouse Army Test Structure 3.1.1 and to survey
the damage done to Greenhouse Structure 3.1.3 and other miscellaneous
These

structures,

(Mike and King)

of

Operation Ivy in the late fall of 1952. A damage survey was conducted
to obtain data upon which to base a correlation of the damages incurred
with the measured air-blast overpressures caused by the two shots. The
damage caused to Structure 3.1.1 by shot Mike was comparable to that
caused by shot Easy of Operation Greenhouse. It is probable that no
damage occurred to Structure 3.1.1 from shot King. Only the final
permament deflections were recorded of Structure 3.1.1 for shot Mike.
The lack of transient response records for this shot increased the
difficulty of correlating the loading with the deformations sustained.
Analyses were performed on Buildings 2 and 3 of Structure 3.1.1.;
