and current methods of predicting free-field effects.
The remaining four classes of radiation fall into the category of
residual radiations. In 17.5, current knowledge of the effects of
transit radiation from airborne sources is summarized, and available
methods of predicting transit radiation aboard ship are discussed.
In
17.6, radiation from activity deposited on ships' weather surfaces is
discussed.
Weapons-test data are summarized and methods of predicting
deposit radiation effects aboard ship are presented.
Radiation aboard
ship from water contaminated by a nuclear burst is discussed in 17. 7.
The discussion includes available weapons-test data and theoretical
calculations, and indicates that negligible radiation from waterborne
sources would penetrate combatant ships later than 1 hour after burst.
Section 17.8 summarizes effects of radiation from contaminated air with-
\
in a ship including available weapons-test data.
