Language: Japanese Journal Announcement: EDB7605 Subfile: AIX (non-US Atomindex input). Country of Origin: Japan Abstract: The author reviews studies about radiation hazards in Japan, particularly the exposure to radiation in Nagasaki, Hiroshima,and Bikini. The report by Dr. Masao Tsuzuki on the effect of radiation is summarized in the item concerning radiation hazards attributed to atomic bombs. It describes research studies of delayed radiation induced hazards, such as intrauterine exposure, cataract and malignancy from the reports of investigations conducted by ABCC (Atomic Bomb Casualty Commission) and from other reports. and residual radioactivity are discussed, In addition, exposure dose as well as the outline and process of hazards relative to the exposure at Bikini.; Major Descriptors: *A-BOMB SURVIVORS -- DELAYED RADIATION EFFECTS Descriptors: BIKINI; CARCINOMAS; EARLY RADIATION EFFECTS; HIROSHIMA; LEUKEMIA; NAGASAKI; PATHOLOGICAL CHANGES; PATIENTS; RADIATION DOSES; RADIATION INJURIES Broader Terms: ASIA; BIOLOGICAL EFFECTS; BIOLOGICAL RADIATION EFFECTS; DISEASES; DOSES; HEMIC DISEASES; INJURIES; ISLANDS; JAPAN; MARSHALL ISLANDS; NEOPLASMS; RADIATION EFFECTS Subject Categories: 560151* INIS Subject Categories: C51* -- Radiation Effects on Animals -- Man -- Actual Radiation Accidents 10/5/996 (Item 696 from file: 103) 00112925 INS-76-015141; EDB-76-050142 Title: Ionizing radiation and wild birds: a review Author(s): Mellinger, P.J.

Country of Origin: United States Abstract: Since the first atomic explosion, 16 July 1945 at the Trinity Site in south-central New Mexico, the impact of ionizing radiation on bird populations has been of concern to a few individuals. The proliferation of nuclear power plants has increased public concern as to possible deleterious effects of nuclear power plant operation on resident and migratory bird populations. Literature involving wild birds and ionizing radiation is not readily available, and only a few studies have been anywhere near comprehensive, with most effort directed towards monitoring radionuclide concentration in birds. The objective of the paper is to document the literature on wild birds and ionizing radiation including a brief description of pertinent papers.; Major Descriptors: *BIRDS -- BIOLOGICAL RADIATION EFFECTS; *FALLOUT -ENVIRONMENTAL EFFECTS Descriptors: BEHAVIOR; ENIWETOK; IONIZING RADIATIONS; NEVADA TEST SITE; NUCLEAR WEAPONS; PHYSIOLOGY; PLOWSHARE PROJECT; RADIOACTIVITY; RADIOISOTOPES; WASTE DISPOSAL Broader Terms: ANIMALS; BIOLOGICAL EFFECTS; ISLANDS; ISOTOPES; MANAGEMENT; MARSHALL ISLANDS; RADIATION EFFECTS; RADIATIONS; VERTEBRATES; WASTE MANAGEMENT; WEAPONS Subject Categories: 560152* -- Radiation Effects on Animals -- Animals INIS Subject Categories: C1l4* -~- Effects of External Radiation on Animals 10/5/997 (Item 697 from file: 103) 00112582 ERA-01-017361; INS-76-014991; EDB-76-049792 Title: Transuranics and other radionuclides in Bikini Lagoon: concentration data retrieved from aged coral sections Author(s): Noshkin, V.E.; Wong, K.M.; Eagle, R.J.; Gatrousi Affiliation: Univ. of California, Livermore S97" 089 Source: Limnol.
