RADIOACTIVE FALLOUT IN NORWAY UP TO NOVEMBER 1957

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4150624
A review was made of airborne and settled radioactive dust monitoring in Norway, and of radioactive material in drinking water. Monthly means of daily measurements of the airborne radioactive dust at ground level for the months July through October 1957 were determined for stations at Kjeller, Gardemonen. 8ola. Finse, Bergen, Varnes, Tromso, and Vadso. The total beta activity in mu mu c/ kg air was measured at different altitudes from December 1956 to November 1957. The cumulative fall-out was measured at Kjeller, Bergen. Kjevik, Sola, Varnes, Bodo, and Bardufoss. The fall-out activity in mu mu c/liter drinking water was also measured. The average Sr/sup 90/ activity at Kjeller was calculated as 1.3 mu mu c/liter precipitation. The measurements showed a tendency to an increase in the average rate of fall-out in Norway. (M.C.G.)
