STRONTIUM 90 IN WESTERN NORTH PACIFIC SURFACE WATERS

Journal Article · · Papers Meteorol. and Geophys. (Tokyo)
OSTI ID:4150369

The oxalate method, followed by Ca masking with EDTA, was used to determine the amount of Sr/sup 90/ in Western North Pacific surface waters. The yield of 80% for the strontium was reproduced satisfactorily. The activity of the Sr/sup 90/ after separation was measured with a thin-wall counter. The concentration of Sr/sup 90/ was found to be more than ten times as large as that of Atlantic waters. (M.C.G.)
