Atmospheric tritium. Progress report, 1 April 1976--30 June 1977. [Tritium and hydrocarbons in atmospheric samples from world sites]
Data are reported from regular, twice or three times weekly, sampling of atmospheric HTO and HT at stations in Miami, FL; Mauna Loa, HI; Fairbanks, AK; and Baring Head, N.Z. In addition, sampling has begun in Miami also for tritium bound in lower hydrocarbons, here called CH/sub 3/T. In December 197...
