Tritium, Deuterium. and Oxygen-18 in Water Collected from Unsaturated SedimentsNear a Low-Level Radioactive-Waste Burial Site South of Beatty, Nevada

摘要

The purposes of this report are (1) to describe the methods used to drill testholes, collect core samples, and extract pore water from the core samples, (2) to compare the distributions of tritium, D, and O-18 in core water with those of water vapor sampled from airports in test hole UZB-2, and (3) to give a preliminary interpretation of the observed distributions.
