During November 1955, HASL received 12 soil, 12 seawater,
8 vegetation, 1 plankton, 2 algae, 6 fish, and 15 coconut samples
collected by A. Seymour of the Applied Fisheries Laboratory, University of Washington.
This particular set of samples was collec-
ted during October 21-23, 1955 on Rongelap, Kabelle, and Labaredj
Islands of Rongelap Atoll and Mogiri Island of Alinginae Atoll.
Each sample was analyzed at HASL for total activity and
Sr-90.
Selected samples were analyzed for normal calcium by the
oxalate-permanganate titration method, for reporting values in Sun-
shine Units.
Values are reported as of February 27, 1956 and are pre-
sented in three sections:
