which is deep, At Bikini cesium and strontium are the radioactive thinga that produce the highest amount of radiation. On the northern fslands of Enewetak bhere was more plutonium and americium than at Bikini and the U.S. Government could sorape some of them off because they were near the surface. Howaver, they could not remove the strontium and cesium because they are daaper in the soil. At Bikini the U.S. Government did pick up all -serap metal scrub growth before the people returned in 1970. and removed The serap metal was moved to deep water in Lhe ocean and lagoon. The map on page _ shows where the radioactive things are ak the Bikini Atoll. things. We gea that all of the islanis in the Bikini atoll have radicactive Next to the map of Bikini is a map of Enewetak Atoll showing where the radioactive things are at this atoll. Here we seq that the amounts of radioactive things are smaller than at Bikini. The islands in the south of the Enawetak Atoll hava a very small amount of radioactivity. THE WAYS RADIATION ENTERED PEQPLE'S BODTES People received radiation from radioactive things at Bikini Atoll while thay lived penetrated there in 2 ways. people's skin and 1 = radiation entered the that came body; 2 = from the the things soil and that are radioactive in some of the foods that people ate, in soe of the water they drank, or in the air they breathed produced radiation inside the bady. The radiation that came up out of the cobalt that was near the surface. soi] oame from the caesium and Part of the radiation from the aesjum and 5
