A methodology is being developed to estimate the exposure of Americans to 131I originating from atmospheric nuclear weapons tests carried out at the Nevada Test Site (NTS) during the 1950s and early 1960s. Since very few direct environmental measurem

A meteorological transport and deposition interpolation model has been employed to estimate radioiodine deposition remote from the Nevada Test Site between points of observed deposition. The movement of the radioactive cloud across the United States

A slow but steady increase in the use of tetroons for tracing atmospheric air trajectories has prompted the development of an automatic method for calculating accurate tetroon inflation factors to float tetroons at desired elevations. The inflation f

Fifty-five constant volume balloons (tetroons) were released in the fall of 1971 at Oklahoma City, Okla., and were ballasted to float at about 300 m over the city (elevation 400 m MSL) to trace local air currents. Twenty seven tetroons were recovered

Pairs of constant volume balloons (tetroons) released ∼1 min apart from the same site at Haswell, Colo., and continuously tracked by two M-33 radars, are used to estimate the mutual consistency of tetroon vertical motions. In the strong well-organi

The Los Angeles Reactive Pollutant Project (LARPP) in the autumn of 1973 involved helicopter sampling of a volume of air “tagged” by means of three constant volume balloons (tetroons) released simultaneously from a point on the ground. Based on r

A model has been developed for predicting diurnal height changes of quasi-constant-density Mylar tetroons resulting from the complex interaction between thermally induced density changes of the tetroon and height-dependent ambient diurnal density cha

A graphical method for flying any type constant-volume balloon at specified heights up to 500 m above mean terrain is described. The flight parameters, surface free-lift, and surface superpressure are determined from graphs whose only argument is the

Tetroon trajectories within the Los Angeles Basin in the autumn of 1973 show that, on non-stagnation days, air located in the Los Angeles area in the morning can pass over the Puente Hills and reach the San Bernardino-Riverside area by mid-afternoon

For the first time in metcorological history the broad aspects of the southerly low-level jet o\er the Western Plains have been studied in fine detail both in time and space. This as acconiplished in the spring of 1961 by means of a line of 13 pibal
