Question for BRAWM Re discrepancy between your data and Radnet

Submitted by Anonymous on Tue, 2011-04-26 19:49

Hello team

I just looked at the most recent Radnet data for Richmond CA rainwater and it shows for 4/14 collection date 7.9 pci/liter for C-137 after having undetectable readings for all previous collections. This seems to contradict your data which shows C-137 peaking earlier and by mid-April being down, along with I-131.

Thanks for any light you can shed on that.

Interesting...I don't know. All I can say is that we have independent agreement with others at Berkeley doing the same measurements. On 4/13, we had a measurement of 3.35 +/- 0.35 pCi/L . In the end, we will be overlaying all measurements that have been peer reviewed to get a good picture. I'm positive there were readings in rainwater before 4/14...just look at our spectra on the "data" links...
