Abstract

The passive air sampling method has been used to measure the spatial distribution of the specific activity of {sup 14}C in air samples collected within the Trombay complex. The samples collected within radial distance of about 0.5 km from Cirus showed 3 to 5 times higher specific activity of {sup 14}C over the natural background level of 6.2 pCi/g C. The same decreased with the distance and approached the value of natural level at the site boundary (1.6 km). The specific activity of {sup 14}C in leaf samples collected within the complex showed the similar pattern. (author). 6 refs., 2 tabs.
