Data gathered at ground water sites in the Elko quadrangle, including applicable water chemistry measurements (e.g., pH, conductivity, alkalinity), physical measurements (e.g., temperature, well description, scintillometer readings), and elemental analyses.

Detailed descriptions of the data report for Elko quadrangle, including (1) sample collection and field measurements, (2) formats, abbreviations, and codes in the data tables, (3) graphs and maps, and (4) quality assurance programs for sample collection and analysis.

Abstract: "Available data on wind persistence and wind forecasting capability have been applied in estimating the probability of a fallout pattern shifting from an uninhabited safe sector into a populated region. Safety probability is computed from win variability, forecasting accuracy, initial height and particle size of radioactivity landing at a point in the predicted fallout pattern, predicted wind speed, length of forecast period, and safe-sector angular width."
