Abstract

Samples of precipitations were collected quarterly and analyzed for90Sr and137Cs. The values obtained ranged from 0.001 to 0.004 Bq dm−3, with a maximum of 0.010 Bq dm−3 for90Sr;137Cs values ranged from 0.001 to 0.005 Bq dm−3, with a maximum of 0.070 Bq dm−3. The highest values were observed during the 2nd and 3rd quarters of 1981.
