Data from 11 detonations during May, June, and July of 1958 (Sh57) indicated a
mean Fallout deposition exponent of 18.8.
This mean value was observed at
Utirik, Rongelap, Parry, and Wotho and was applied to early time post detonation
of BRAVO to obtain the initial increasing exposure rate history shown on
aed
Figures 24 and 26.
s
UN
This method yielded a fallout deposition period of 5.5
hours on Rongelap and 12 hours on Utirik.
This time compares well with the
original observations reported by the Marshallese and by U.S. Navy personne}
stationed in the area (Sh57).
