Sources and Effects of Ionizing Radiation, United Nations Scientific Committee on the Effects of Atomic Radiation (UNSCEAR) 2000 Report, Volume I: Report to the General Assembly, with Scientific Annexes - Sources
Abstract
This report summarizes the developments in radiation science in the years leading up to the new millennium, drawn on the main conclusion of the scientific assessments of the United Nations Scientific Committee on the Effect of Atomic Radiation (UNSCEAR). This Volume I comprises of scientific annexes aimed at the general scientific community, specifically presents findings on: the dose assessment methodologies, the natural radiation exposure, the man-made environmental exposure, the medical radiation exposure, and the occupational radiation exposure. The publication is a unique scientific basis for estimating radiation risk, establishing radiation protection and safety standards and regulating radiation sources, for governments and organizations throughout the world.

“Fallout from thermonuclear weapon tests that began in 1952 C.E. and peaked in 1961 -1962 C.E. left a clear and global signature, concentrated in the mid-latitudes and maximal in the Northern Hemisphere where most testing occurred ( 47, 60, 61 ; Fig. 4B).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
