A STUDY OF Sr-90 AND Cs-137 IN NORWAY. 1957-1959

Precipitation, soil, vegetation, and drainage water were systematically sampled and analyzed for Sr/sup 90/ and Cs/sup 137/ in three precipitation basins in South Norway. In addition peat soil and plants from 32 other localities in South and North Norway were analyzed to assess the over-all fallout level in Norway. In the three precipitation basins the results gave a picture of the distribution and transportation of Sr/sup 90/ and Cs/sup 137/ in water, soil, and vegetation under different seasonal conditions.
