Radionuclides in a deciduous forest surrounding a shallow-land-burial site in the eastern United States

Conference ·
OSTI ID:6192822
; ;
The objective of this study was to determine if radioactive materials buried in trenches at the Maxey Flats burial ground in eastern Kentucky have migrated into the surrounding oak-hickory forest. Forest floor litter, minearl soil, and tree leaves were sampled and the radionuclide content measured. (ACR)
