Analysis of UPSHOT-KNOTHOLE 1 (ANNIE) radiological and meteorological data
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:6380830
This report describes the Weather Service Nuclear Support Office (WSNSO) analyses of the radiological and meteorological data collected for the UPSHOT-KNOTHOLE 1 (ANNIE) nuclear test. Inconsistencies in the radiological data and their resolution are discussed. The methods of estimating fallout arrival times are presented. The meteorological situation on D day and a few days following is described. A comparison of the fallout pattern resulting from these 1982 analyses and the earlier (1956) analyses is presented. The radiological data used to derive the 1982 fallout pattern are tabulated in the Appendix.
