Sampling Soils for Transuranic Nuclides: A Review.

DE20037107224

Publication Date	2002
Personal Author	Folwer, E. B.; Essington, E. H.
Page Count	24
Abstract	A review of the literature pertinent to the sampling of soils for radionuclides is presented; emphasis is placed on transuranic nuclides. Sampling of soils is discussed relative to systems of heterogeneous distributions and varied particle sizes encountered in certain environments. Sampling methods that have been used for two different sources of contamination, global fallout, and accidental or operational re1eases, are included.
