    Radiocesium and other nuclides in the Norwegian-Greenland Seas, 1981-1982
    (Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, 1984-09) Casso, Susan A. ; Livingston, Hugh D.
    This report contains data obtained from measurements of various artificial radiotracers in seawater samples from the Norwegian-Greenland Seas and adjacent seas during 1981-82. The radionuclides measured include 137Cs, 134Cs, 90Sr and 3H. The sampling and analytical work result from the efforts of several laboratories viz. Deutsches Hydrographisches Institut, Germany; Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food (Fisheries Laboratory), U.K.; Riso National Laboratory, Denmark; University of Miami Tritium Laboratory, U.S.A.; and Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, U.S.A. The data set includes a large number of measurements in surface water in the region and a substantial number of vertical profiles in the various water masses. The radiotracers in the region originate from nuclear fallout from atmospheric nuclear weapons tests and from low level releases of liquid waste to European coastal waters in association with the reprocessing of nuclear fuel. The data represent a comprehensive series of measurements suitable for gaining new insight in respect to the rates and routes of the regional circulation and to the dispersal pattern of pollutants introduced to European shelf waters.

    Fallout nuclides in Atlantic and Pacific water columns : GEOSECS data
    (Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, 1985-05) Livingston, Hugh D. ; Bowen, Vaughan T. ; Casso, Susan A. ; Volchok, H. L. ; Noshkin, V. E. ; Wong, K. M. ; Beasley, T. M.
    This report contains results of measurements of the fallout radionuclides 90Sr, 137Cs , 239,240Pu , and 241Am in large volume seawater samples collected between 1972 and 1974 in the Atlantic and Pacific as part of Geochemical Ocean Sections (GEOSECS) program. The stations for which data are reported include both the North and South Atlantic oceans and latitudes north of 20° S in the Pacific Ocean. The 90Sr and 137Cs data set has been corrected by a procedure which estimates independently the analytical blank for the laboratory which made the analysis. When the data quality and spacing permit, water column inventory estimates were made for each nuclide over depth intervals appropriate to the nuclide's distribution.

    Cesium and strontium isotopes in the northwestern North Atlantic and Arctic Ocean, 1981-1985
    (Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, 1988-04) Casso, Susan A. ; Clarke, William R. ; Livingston, Hugh D. ; Palmieri, Julianne M. ; Surprenant, Lolita D.
    This report is a follow-up to Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution Technical Report WHOI-84-40. It contains 137cs and 90sr data from seawater samples collected on four cruises in the northwestern North Atlantic, Arctic Ocean, and Barents Sea during 1981 to 1985, and radionuclide data from samples collected on a cruise to the Norwegian-Greenland Seas in 1979. Also included are data from four ice stations in the Arctic from 1979 to 1985. The sample collections were made possible through collaborative efforts with several laboratories. The radionuclide analyses were done at WHOI.
