Popis: Seasonal variations of fissile particulate materials, identified by fission track study, in monthly deposit collected in Niigata during 1985-1996 are presented. Probability of the month having larger number than the mean of monthly number of them varied with a tendency to be larger during December to April. In order to presume the origins of fissile particulate materials in deposit, ten stable elements in samples were determined by neutron activation analysis and the sizes of fissile particles were estimated by using a computer simulation. On the basis of these data, it was assumed that there were different origins of the fissile particulate materials such as soil near sampling site and Kosa dust.
