  • Radioanalysis of oceanic organisms in the Pacific Ocean off Oregon

    Creator:
    Osterberg, Charles L.
    Abstract:
    Our major effort since initiation of this contract has been directed toward (1) procuring the gamma-ray spectrometric equipment and integrating the components into an operational system, and (2) analyzing the samples obtained from the midwater trawl program of the Department of Oceanography and evaluating and interpreting the resulting data Analyses...

  • Radioanalysis of oceanic organisms in the Pacific Ocean off Oregon

    Creator:
    Osterberg, Charles L.
    Abstract:
    This report covers the first full year of operation of our gammaray spectrometry facility. A part of the contract period was devoted to calibration of the instrument, and therefore, a brief report on this procedure is included.

  • The Hanford Laboratories and the growth of environmental research in the Pacific Northwest, 1943 to 1965

    Creator:
    Ellis, D. Erik
    Abstract:
    The scientific endeavors that took place at Hanford Engineer Works, beginning in World War II and continuing thereafter, are often overlooked in the literature on the Manhattan Project, the Atomic Energy Commission, and in regional histories. To historians of science, Hanford is described as an industrial facility that illustrates the...

  • Physiochemical mechanisms for the transport and retention of technetium

    Creator:
    Jansik, Danielle P.
    Abstract:
    Understanding the transport and retention of radionuclides in the environment is important for protecting freshwater supplies and minimizing impact to biologic systems. Technetium-99 (Tc⁹⁹) is a radionuclide of interest due to its long half-life (2.13 x 10⁵ years) and toxicity. In the form of pertechnetate (TcO₄⁻), Tc is expected to...
