Environmental radioactivity in Chile - during 1987 - Technical information

Individual results of fallout radiactive analysis from 500 samples of: drink water, rain water, milk, sediment dust, C.R.A.P.A.L. filters and air filters, obtained during 1987 in 10 sampling sites distribuited between 18 to 54 degrees South Latitude, within Chilean's territory, is presented in this report. The principals radionuclides analized were Sr-89, Sr-90 and Cs-137. The concentrations of these were nearly at the lower limits of detection of the analytical systems that we used currently to measure them. (1 figure, 27 tables, 10 references). (author) (one map)
