actual air zero for Shot Cherokee deviated considerably from the
planned air zero, resulting in a significant angle of incidence of the
thermal energy on the instruments. The data presented in this report
represent the thermal radiant energy actually recorded by the
thermal-radiation detection instruments at the various stations.;

Abstract: Residents of Bikini Atoll were moved from their home Atoll on 31
August 1978.
Since that time, they have been relocated either to Kili
Island, or to Majuro and Ejit Islands at Majuro Atoll.
Whole body
counting and urine bioassay were performed on this population in
January and May 1979, and body burdens for nuclides positively
identified were determined from both techniques.
Data from these
measurements have been used to calculate long-term biological removal
rate constants for /sup 137/Cs and /sup 60/Co and to relate the
long-term rate constant for /sup 137/Cs to total body mass.;
