Description
Summary:During 1976 large-volume seawater and sediment samples were collected for analysis of fallout radionuclides, especially Pu and Am, and radionuclides from other sources during cruises in the Mediterranean and Atlantic off the Iberian Peninsula and in the North Sea and northeastern Atlantic to Iceland. Plankton samples were also collected for analysis for radionuclides and the distribution and abundance of Foraminifera and Acantharia. A list of publications that report the results of previous studies under this contract is included. (CH)
