Effect of plume residence on the accumulation of $sup 137$Cs by Lake Michigan salmonids

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4063651
Brown trout, rainbow trout, and chinook salmon were tagged with temperature-sensitive tags and released back into the Point Beach discharge area. Gamma spectral analysis detected only $sup 137$Cs and $sup 40$K in the fish samples. A comparison of mean $sup 137$Cs concentrations in all groups for 1971 and 1973 showed that 1971 levels were significantly higher than 1973 levels. (HLW)
