It is apparent from these data that at locations well shielded from

airborne and deposited activity, such as the recorder room, the dose
rates and doses were extremely low, less than 6% of those recorded in

the water. In the hold, the mijor portion of the recorded dose is
estimated to have been due to backscattered radiation from airborne and
deposited activity. According to Ref. 41, the highest estimates of
water contribution were obtained during participation in Shot Tewa, which
ie classified as a land-surface, rather than a water-surface shot.
At
Tewa, water contribution to both dose and dose rete was estimated to

have been less than 11% in the lower hold where the 10 hr recorded dose
was about 1 r, while the 10-hr deck dose was about 25 r, and the 10-hr
dose in the water was about 3 r.
It was further estimated that rad-

jation from the water contributed less than 1% of the total deck dose.
