CODAR: A Computer Code for the Calculation of Collective and Individual Radiation Exposure Arising from the Release of Activity to an Estuary or Sea in the British Isles.

摘要

A description is given of the computer program CODAR which enables estimates to be made of both collective and individual radiation exposure for releases of activity around the coasts of the Britsh Isles. The program can be run for either a limited or a continuous release of activity, and for different assumptions about, for example, the loss of activity to bottom sediments, the external exposure arising from contaminated sediments and the local hydrology. For collective exposure the world, EEC or UK populations can be considered. Full details are given to enable users to run the computer program. (Atomindex citation 14:754795)
