Journal Article · · J. Geophys. Research
Evidence is presented that an insignificant fraction of debris from the Soviet nuclear test explosions in October 1958 was present in the lower stratosphere at the end of 1959 and that fall-out during 1960 mainly orginated from injections into the tropical stratosphere during 1958. (auth)
