Radiation monitoring involves the measurement of radiation dose or radionuclide contamination for reasons related to the assessment or control of exposure to radiation or radioactive substances, and the interpretation of the results. [1] The U.S. Navy monitored radiation from the Fukushima I nuclear accidents
Safecast is an international, volunteer-centered organization devoted to open citizen science for environmental monitoring.Safecast was established by Sean Bonner, Pieter Franken, and Joi Ito shortly after the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear disaster in Japan, following the TÅhoku earthquake on 11 March 2011 and manages a global open data network for ionizing radiation and air quality monitoring.
To monitor the background (least influenced by immediate human activities which are regionally concentrated) shortwave and longwave radiative components and their changes with the best methods currently available. To provide data for the calibration of satellite-based estimates of the surface radiative fluxes.
in which the F Hg is the flux of Hg emission, E a is the activation energy, R is the gas constant, T s is the soil temperature, n and m are constants, [Hg] s is the Hg concentration, and 0.003* R z accounts for the solar radiation since the solar radiation has the effect on the temperature, hence the solar radiation has the effect on the ...
The below map of evacuation zones is current as of Sunday at 7:30 p.m. ET. The zones highlighted in red are areas under evacuation orders due to the Eaton Fire as of 7:30 p.m. ET on Jan. 12.
Radiation Exposure Monitoring (REM) is a framework developed by Integrating the Healthcare Enterprise (IHE), for utilizing existing technical standards, such as DICOM, to provide information about the dose delivered to patients in radiology procedures, in an interoperable format.
Multiple major wildfires are leaving a trail of destruction and death in the Los Angeles area.. A handful of wildfires that kicked up on Jan. 7, powered by high winds and dry conditions, have ...
Radiation monitors in general have a number of process-control applications in nuclear power plants; [9] a major CPAM application in this area is the monitoring of the air intake for the plant control room. In the event of an accident, high levels of airborne radioactivity could be brought into the control room by its HVAC system; the CPAM ...
