Description/Abstract:
THIS REPORT DESCRIBES THE WEATHER SERVICE NUCLEAR SUPPORT OFFICE (WSNS, O) ANALYSES OF THE RAIOLOGICAL AND METEOROLOGICAL DATA COLLECTED FOR T, HE BEE NUCLEAR TEST OF OPERATION TEAPOT. INCONSISTENCIES IN THE RADIOL, OGICAL DATA AND THEIR RESOLUTION ARE DISCUSSED. THE METHODS OF NORMALI, ZING THE RADIOLOGICAL DATA TO A STANDARD TIME AND ESTIMATING FALLOUT-A, RRIVAL TIMES ARE PRESENTED. THE METEOROLOGICAL SITUATIONS ON EVENT DAY,AND THE FOLLOWING DAY ARE DESCRIBED. A COMPARISON OF THE WSNSO FALLOU, T ANALYSIS WITH AN ANALYSIS PERFORMED IN THE 1950'S IS PRESENTED. THE , RADIOLOGICAL DATA USED TO DERIVE THE WSNSO FALLOUT PATTER ARE TABULATE, D IN AN APPENDIX.
