Mitigation of Nuclear Fallout Risks Through Sheltering and Evacuation

摘要

The research summarized here has provided quantitative guidance to planners seeking to prescribe best practices for urban evacuation following a nuclear detonation. In areas where high quality shelter (PF>10) exists, personnel should shelter immediately and remain until fallout hazards decay and assessment of safe exit routes are complete. This may require sheltering for 24 hours or more.
