ABSTRACT (Continue on reverse side if necessary and identify by block number)
Operation REDWING
Fallout
Surface Radiation
The
general
obj ective
was
to
obtain data sufficient to characterize the fallout, interpret the aerial and oceanographic survey results, and check fallout-model theory for Shots Cherokee, Zuni,
Flathead, Navajo, and Tewa during Operation REDWING. Detailed measurements of fall-
out buildup were planned. Measurements of radiation characteristics and physical,
chemical, and radiochemical properties of individual solid and slurry particles and
total cloud and fallout samples were also planned, along with determinations of the
surface densities of activity and environmental components in the fallout at each
major station.
