Description

In this study Uranium concentration average absorbed dose and average external effective dose were calculated for dusty storm at 8/9/2007 and 27/4/2008 for some middle and west parts in Iraq. The result for specific activity of uranium was in range of (4.44-10.409 Bq/kg) and the absorbed dose range (1.904-4.465 nGy/h) for dusty storm at 8/9/2007 and the average spective activity (6.475-22.680 Bq/kg) and the average absorbed dose (2.777-9.729 nGy/h) for dusty storm 17/4/2008. All the results were lower than allow was level, but the a culmination of the dose of more then one dusty storm may have a damage effect
