THE WAYS THAT SCIENTISTS ARB ABLE TO ESTIMATE THE AMOUNT OF RADIATION A PERSON MIGHT RECEIVE IF HE LIVES WHERE THERE IS RADIATION FROM THE ATOMIC BOMB AX & result of many studies ami measurements, scientists are able to estimate the amount of radiation that people might receive if they live on an atoll] where radiation from the atomle bomb is present. They dig many holes, some shallow and some deep, take portions of soi] from them, and measure the amount. of radiation in each of these portions of soj]. Thay examine aalt water from the ocean and the lagoon and water from brackish wells. examine ‘They take fisn and other sea life and study them. the amount of radioactive Plants take from the soll. things that food~bearing Thay also trees and other They also examine the radioactivity in the duat ta the air. This is the information that the scientists find as a result of the activities above. 1. ‘Tne amount of things that are radioactive on aach of the islands. 2. What kind of radioactive things are on each of these islands. 3. Where in the anil these radioactive éléments ara, 4, The amount of radiation that comes fram the soil. 5. The amount of things that are radioactive in the soil that will enter fooda, plants and animals. 6. Row much them, 7. the such as lagoon and fish, crabs, the ocean lobsters, are radioactive alamsa, and alse faod from etc. How muoh the brackish walls and drinking water are radioaative. ( adfa 34
