129 I in rainwater across Argentina

Concentrations of I and I in rainwater samples from several stations across Argentina (latitudes between 25° S and 55° S) were measured and analyzed for the assessment of distribution patterns and potential sources of I in the Southern Hemisphere. Measured I levels, clearly above those explainable b...

Zusammenfassung:Concentrations of I and I in rainwater samples from several stations across Argentina (latitudes between 25° S and 55° S) were measured and analyzed for the assessment of distribution patterns and potential sources of I in the Southern Hemisphere. Measured I levels, clearly above those explainable by natural background and atmospheric nuclear weapons tests, can be understood by the injection into the Southern Hemisphere of I that had been discharged from nuclear fuel reprocessing plants in the Northern Hemisphere.
