Snose estimates derived from whole body counting (in-vivo) by Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL). these estimates are much more reliable than estimates from dose models. . 4 fhe average adult dose in 1982 represents a 56 percent increase compared to 19861 due to relaxed restrictions. The high individual dose of 6.14 Rem/yr was expected to be reduced to less than 0.1 Rem/yr if restrictions had remained effective. bose prediction developed by Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory using results from Northern Marshalls survey and dose models. This exposure estimate was given to the Rongelap people in 1982 in a Marshallese English booklet. This value ia not supported by in-vivo monitoring data, and has never been corrected.
