The population of land crabs should be sharply
reduced because of their high content of sr??,
f£.
If pandanus trees are planted on Bikini Island,
two inches of topsoil should be removed from the
planting sites.
The area of removal from each
site should be equal to the area covered by the
crown of mature trees.
Determinations should be made of body burdens of cst? and
gr?° at the end of the first year of residence on the Atoll
and as appropriate thereafter.
Baseline surveys prior to
relocation would be desirable.
Resurveys of environmental
radiation levels on the Bikini Atoll and estimates or radionuclides in food should be made periodically.
Special efforts should be made to ensure a balanced and
adequately nutritious diet.
A dietary supplement of
powdered milk would materially reduce sr?? uptake by
relieving the calcium deficiency usually associated with
their diet.
