The 240Pu/239Pu atom ratio with the mean value of 0.227 +- 0.006 was significantly higher than the mean global fallout ratio of 0.18. The contribution of the Pacific Proving Grounds close-in fallout was estimated to be 33 % of the 239+240Pu.}, pages = {103--107}, title = {Determination of 240Pu/239Pu atom ratio in coastal surface seawaters from the western North Pacific Ocean and Japan Sea.}, volume = {66}, year = {2007} }
