Three laboratories were contracted by Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory to perform the radiochemical analyses: Environmental Analysis Laboratory (EAL), Richmond, California; Eberline Instrument Corporation (EIC), Albuquerque, New Mexico; and Laboratory of Radiation Ecology (LRE), University of Washington, Seattle, Washington. The analytical precision and accuracy were monitored by regularly including duplicate samples and natural matrix standards in each group of about 100 samples analyzed. Based on the duplicates and standards, over 83% of the radiochemical analyses in this survey were acceptable - 97% of the analyses by EAL, LRE.; Major Descriptors: 45% of the analyses by EIC, and 98% of the analyses by *MARSHALL ISLANDS -- RADIATION MONITORING; *RADIOCHEMICAL ANALYSIS -- QUALITY CONTROL Descriptors: AMERICIUM 241; CESIUM 137; PLUTONIUM ISOTOPES; STRONTIUM 90 Broader Terms: ACTINIDE ISOTOPES; ACTINIDE NUCLEI; ALKALI METAL ISOTOPES; ALKALINE EARTH ISOTOPES; ALPHA DECAY RADIOISOTOPES; AMERICIUM ISOTOPES; BETA DECAY RADIOISOTOPES; BETA-MINUS DECAY RADIOISOTOPES; CESIUM ISOTOPES; CHEMICAL ANALYSIS; CONTROL; EVEN-EVEN NUCLEI; HEAVY NUCLEI; INTERMEDIATE MASS NUCLEI; ISLANDS; ISOTOPES; MICRONESIA; MONITORING; NUCLEI; OCEANIA; ODD-EVEN NUCLEI; QUANTITATIVE CHEMICAL ANALYSIS; RADIOISOTOPES; STRONTIUM ISOTOPES; YEARS LIVING RADIOISOTOPES Subject Categories: 510300* -- Environment, Terrestrial -- Radioactive Materials Monitoring & Transport -- (-1989) INIS Subject Categories: B31* 10/5/686 01271557 -- Land (Item 386 from file: 103) ERA-08-052386; EDB-83-171560 Author(s): Gladeck, Miller, R.H.
