Popis: We have demonstrated that evaluation of vertical atmospheric Be profiles, extensive deposition samples, a few strategically located air concentration measuring devices, and ambient meteorological conditions can be used to characterize the high-explosives tests at Site 300. Our application of modeling simulation using the detailed description of Be particle-size and air concentrations in the stem and cap cloud formed during a detonation has resulted in a high level of physical realism and objectivity in the assessment of downwind Be deposition and short-term elevated air concentrations. 46 refs., 18 figs., 3 tabs.
