Abstract:
To evaluate 210Pb deposited on the surface of sea around Japan in detail, the performance of atmospheric transport/deposition model for 222Rn and its progenies was examined. To test the model's reproducibility of 210Pb deposition in winter, it was applied at Rokkasho in Aomori, where the model had been reported to significantly underestimate when the horizontal grid interval of 9 km was used. It was shown that the precipitation on the Pacific Ocean side and Mutsu Bay and hence the 210Pb deposition at Rokkasho were significantly improved with the grid interval of 3 km although the deposition was still underestimated by the observation. This underestimation was considered to be caused by model's neglect of horizontal drift of snow and rain. It was also pointed out that the deposited 210Pb was mainly contributed by the lower atmosphere up to 2-3 km.

Precipitation Gravimetry
In determining nickel by gravimetric analysis, a precipitant of ethanolic dimethylglyoxime is added to a hot nickel salt solution. This is quickly followed by the dropwise addition of dilute ammonia solution until precipitation occurs. A...
