Particle size was 2mm or less (99.8 percent-83.6 percent _ weight (%80 percent fresh weight). total). Based on dry he5 pH in water. The strontium-90 activities 37-40 on Eneu. are the mean of 55-63 sites The activity at locations 1 and 2 on Islands was not determined. Total cesium was below detection limit (1.3 ppm). High phosphorus values indicate ancient guano deposition. Organic matter by wet oxidation. Extractable in N NHq acetate. 5000047 51 on Bikini Bikini and and Eneu
