; ;
Measurements of Cs137 in rain water were made in 1958 by gamma scintillation spectroscopy. The average monthly quantity in 1958 was estimated as 0.99 mc/km2 per month while it was 0.3 mc/km2 per month in 1957. The amount of precipitation in 1958 was 1.7 times that of precipitation in 1957, the content of Cs137 increased more than 3 times during the same period.
