Ground zero soil sampling: Trinity, 1945
Geology Today, Volume 41, Issue 4, Page 137-146, July/August 2025.At Trinity—the world's first nuclear weapons testing site—large quantities of soil were drawn into the fireball to redeposit either downwind as radioactive fallout or in the near‐field as a unique, anthropogenic silicate glass trinitite. Manhattan Project physicists and chemists came to see soils at the Trinity site as a useful medium to assess the ...

Molten Flux Synthesis of Plutonium (IV) Silicates K2PuSi2O7 and Rb2PuSi6O15
European Journal of Inorganic Chemistry, Volume 27, Issue 36, December 20, 2024.K2PuSi2O7 and Rb2PuSi6O15 were synthesized using a molten flux technique and structurally characterized using both single crystal X‐ray diffraction and Raman analysis. The structure and reaction conditions of these compounds were compared to other reported alkali MIV silicates found in the literature, where M=Pu, Ce, U, and Th.

Revegetation of a Waste Disposal Site in the 200 Areas of the Hanford Reservation [PDF]
, 1977 The study area is located on a portion of a former 17-acre cooling water pond. It was used from October 1951 to April 1954 to receive process vessel cooling water and steam condensate arising from operation of the Redox plant. The pond was taken out of service when an inadvertent release of fission products caused the radionuclide concentrations in the

Contaminated sites and Indigenous peoples in Canada and the United States: A scoping review
Integrated Environmental Assessment and Management, Volume 20, Issue 5, Page 1306-1329, September 2024.Abstract Indigenous communities are disproportionately exposed to contaminated sites, and this poses unique challenges as many Indigenous peoples consider land as an integral part of their culture and economy. This scoping review aimed to identify and map information on contaminated sites and Indigenous peoples in Canada and the United States, namely ...

Sample descriptions and summary logs of selected wells within the Hanford Reservation [PDF]
, 1977 As part of a program aimed at quantifying the hydraulic parameters of the synthetic flow systems of the Hanford Reservation a systematic study was made of the samples from selected wells. This report presents the description and summary logs of cuttings samples from 114 wells and test holes drilled within the Hanford Reservation.

Experimental laboratory models as tools for understanding modifiable dementia risk
Alzheimer's &Dementia, Volume 20, Issue 6, Page 4260-4289, June 2024.Abstract Experimental laboratory research has an important role to play in dementia prevention. Mechanisms underlying modifiable risk factors for dementia are promising targets for dementia prevention but are difficult to investigate in human populations due to technological constraints and confounds.

Parabolic dune distribution, morphology and activity during the last 20 000 years: A global overview
Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 49, Issue 1, Page 117-146, January 2024.Parabolic dunes are ubiquitous on Earth and are particularly sensitive to climate changes. This global review presents a valuable database for predicting their future development. It shows that global atmospheric circulation governed their morphology and migration direction, thus aiding predictions and providing insights into paleoclimate conditions ...

HEATER TEST PLANNING FOR THE NEAR SURFACE TEST FACILITY AT THE HANFORD RESERVATION [PDF]
, 1979 The underground test facility NSTF being constructed at Gable Mountain, is the site for a group of experiments designed to evaluate the thermo-mechanical suitability of a deep basalt stratum as a permanent repository for nuclear waste. Thermo-mechanical modeling was performed to help design the instrumentation arrays for the three proposed heater tests

Radioactive particle resuspension research experiments on the Hanford Reservation [PDF]
, 1977 Experiments were conducted from 1972 to 1975 at several Hanford Reservation study sites to determine whether radioactive particles from these sites were resuspended and transported by wind and to determine, if possible, any interrelationships between wind speed, direction, airborne soil, and levels of radioactivity on airborne particles.
