Sentence examples for fallout distribution from inspiring English sources

In the case of the LST, it seems evident, for example, that the eastern limits of the north-eastern fallout lobe are not an accurate reflection of the real fallout distribution, but rather that they reflect a current lack for tephrochronological research in Poland, whose border this distribution follows almost exactly (Figure 8).

It should be expected that the actual fallout distribution could vary considerably from these diagrams, with various irregular shapes due to the micrometeorology and terrain variables.

In subsequent atmospheric nuclear tests at the Nevada test site, United States Atomic Energy Commission officials gave the photographic industry maps and forecasts of potential contamination, as well as expected fallout distributions which enabled them to purchase uncontaminated materials and take other protective measures.

The residence time of 210Pb created in the atmosphere by the decay of gaseous 222Rn is a key parameter controlling its distribution and fallout onto the landscape.

Volcanic ash can be transported up to thousands of kilometres from a source, and understanding the spatial distribution of fallout from all potential events is essential for quantifying the risk to a region.

We report on the small scale (< 10 m) and landscape scale (10 to 1000 m) <span class="lh">distribution of fallout 137Cs, and show significant variability in the concentrations and amounts of 137Cs in soils at our site.

Our simulation results also clearly indicate that fine ash particles suspended in horizontally moving clouds were transported toward the east-southeast by high-altitude winds, whereas the distribution of fallout from the eruption cloud was strongly controlled by low-altitude winds.

The presence of aggregates has, in the past, been inferred from the observation of a polymodal particle size distribution of fallout deposits and is the most viable mechanism to explain the occurrence of secondary thickness maxima in such deposits (i.e., Sarna-Wojcicki et al. 1981; Carey and Sigurdsson 1982; Brazier et al. 1982, 1983).

The impact is illustrated by calculations showing the distribution of 210Pb fallout versus longitude at northern mid-latitudes.

Rather than expressing the hazard of a future eruption, such scenarios are useful to assess the probability of a studied fallout event considering the statistical distribution of wind conditions (e.g. Elissondo et al. 2016).

The resulting hazard simulation maps show the potential distribution of pyroclastic fallout, PDCs and lava flows, indicating areas to the S/SE of Valles Caldera to be at greatest risk.
