This report presents current information from the EML environmental programs, The Air Monitoring Section of the Bhabha Atomic Research Centre, India, the National Radiation Laboratory in New Zealand, and the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution. The initial section consists of interpretive reports and notes dealing with /sup 90/Sr levels in food in India, /sup 90/Sr in human bone from San Francisco, the global deposition of /sup 90/Sr, origin and deposition history of trace elements and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in Adirondack lakes, description of boat for taking lake sediment cores, interlaboratory comparison of chemical constituent analyses of deposition samples and quality control of halocarbon and nitrous oxide analyses of gas samples collected by aircraft. Subsequent sections include tabulations of /sup 90/Sr fallout, chemical constituents of wet and dry deposition, radionuclides and trace metal concentrations in surface air, and /sup 90/Sr concentrations in San Francisco and New York diet, milk and tapwater. A bibliography of recent publications related to environmental studies is also presented. This appendix contains the relevant data.
