(Corr.1)

G/R.108

CURRENT RESEARCH FINDINGS ON RADIOACTIVE FALLOUT
General survey of the fallout problem, especially Sr® distribution and uptake
in the human body.

G/R.109

DOSAGES FROM NATURAL RADIOACTIVITY AND COSMIC RAYS

G/R.123

RADIOACTIVITY OF PEOPLE AND FOODS
Potassium and cesium activities measured with whole body counters are re-

ported. The amount of Cs!*” now present in the population of the United States
shows no marked dependence on geographical location.

G/R.124

ATMOSPHERIC RADIOACTIVITY ALONG THE 80TH MERIDIAN, 1956
Radioactivity levels at the various sites during 1956 are reported for three
different collecting systems: air filters, cloth screens, and gummed films.
Extremely wide variations in the gross radioactivity of fission products in the
air have been noted, with the highest levels occurring in the Northern hemisphere. Preliminary results of radiochemical analyses of a few filter collections
are included.

G/R.125

RADIOACTIVE CONTAMINATION OF CERTAIN AREAS IN THE PACIFIC
OCEAN FROM NUCLEAR TESTS

Contains a summary of the data on contamination levels in some areas of the
Pacific Ocean and results from medical surveys of Marshall Islands inhabitants.
Data on gross beta activity, individual isotope contamination and external
gamma exposure are included.

G/R.130

THE NATURE OF RADIOACTIVE FALLOUT AND ITS EFFECTS ON MAN
An extremely diverse and extensive collection of information and expert
opinion given as public testimony before a governmental committee, and presented without further evaluation.

G/R.131

RADIOACTIVE STRONTIUM FALLOUT
General survey of the fallout problem, especially Sr®*® distribution and uptake
in the human body.

G/R.142

RADIOACTIVE FALLOUT
General survey of the fallout problem, especially sr® distribution and uptake
in the human body.

G/R.153

THE CHICAGO SUNSHINE METHOD: ABSOLUTE ASSAY OF STRONTIUM-90 IN
BIOLOGICAL MATERIALS, SOILS, WATERS, AND AIR FILTERS
Contains a survey of Chicago sunshine research program on the distribution
of Sr®° in the biosphere. Methods of sample treatment, counting, and evolution
of date are reported. Detailed description of analytical chemical procedures is
added.
