Doses were calculated from average exposure rates for each atoll.
Mulciple year dose calculations were made on the background substracted exposure rate,
assumed to be che average of exposure rates detected at Ailuk and Wot je Atolls,
Dose represents increase over background.
Conservatively assumes 100 percent of time spent on Utirik Island.
Based on a superficial survey of Eniwetak Island only.
