RE: UNSCEAR report: HEREDITARY EFFECTS OF RADIATION



Hello from Western Australia,



If anybody interested, I've got a technical note (12 pages in French) from

Institute of Radiation Protection and Nuclear Safety in France here:

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Etudes épidémiologiques dans des zones à haut niveau de radioactivité

naturelle, D Laurier, JM Martin, Ph Hubert, IPSN - Note technique

SEGR/LEADS- 2000/91

<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

Quite interesting...  A bit from it (don't think it needs translation):

...dans le village de Talesh Mahalleh, la dose externe moyenne est estimée à

10 mGy/an, certains individus pouvant atteindre 132 mGy/an, et la

concentration moyenne de radon dans les habitations est de 615 Bq/m 3

(Sohrabi 1998).



Please let me know if you wish to get a copy - I'll e-mail it to you.



Kind regards

Nick

in Guaparari

		A pertinent paper is Health Physics 82: 87-93 (2002). The

background in

		Ramsar, Iran, is a remarkable 260 mSv/year without

observable cytogenetic
