OSTI ID:5730283

Data are presented on fission product radioactivity in samples of surface air, precipitation, surface waters, water supplies, and milk collected throughout the US and Canada and other selected sites during 1962 and 1963. An analysis was made of the Sr/sup 90//Ca ratio in infant and adult diets at New York City, Chicago, and San Francisco between April and November 1962. Data are included on environmental levels of radioactivity at the Savannah River Plant during 1962. Results are reported from whole-body measurements of Cs/sup 137/ in man made at Landstuhl, Germany.
