Holocene in age (<10,000 years old). This paper will appear in a special volume on
the paleohydrology of the Mojave Desert to be published by the Geological Society
of America in 2001.
In addition to the topical investigations described above, LLNL-ANCD contributed to
several other technical products and collaborations during the past year.
A paper titled "Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry Measurements of Volcanic Tuffs
Containing Radionuclides from Underground Nuclear Tests" was published in the journal
Radiochimica Acta (Rose et al., 2000). This work was previously presented in the FY
1999 HRMP and UGTA Progress Report (Smith and Eaton, 2000).
A paper titled "Aged Nuclear Explosive Melt Glass: Radiography and Scanning Electron
Microscope Analyses Documenting Radionuclide Distribution and Glass Alteration," was
recently published in the Journal of Radioanalytical and Nuclear Chemistry (Eaton and
Smith, 2001). This work was initially outlined in the FY 1998 HRMP and UGTA report
(Smith and Eaton, 1999) and was presented at the Methods and Applications of
Radioanalytical Chemistry (MARC V) conference in April of 2000.
D.K. Smith presented a paper on "Insights to Repository Performance Through Study of
a Nuclear Test Site" at the 24th International Symposium on the Scientific Basis for
Nuclear Waste Management, held in Sydney, Australia in August 2000 (Smith et al.,
2000).
UGTA staff presented a poster entitled "Environmental Isotopes in the Pahute Mesa-
Oasis Valley Groundwater Flow System" at the Annual Fall Meeting of the American
Geophysical Union in San Francisco in December 1999 (Rose et al., 1999). The session
topic was on the interdisciplinary assessment of the Oasis Valley groundwater flow
system in southern Nevada, and it included presentations from a number of UGTA
contract organizations.
A.B. Kersting was invited to serve on the Actinide Migration Evaluation (AME) group
for the DOE facility at Rocky Flats, near Denver, Colorado. The committee consists of
experts in the fields of actinide chemistry, geochemistry, hydrology, soil erosion, and
contaminant transport processes. This committee meets quarterly, and provides guidance
on the integration of remediation, decontamination and decommissioning, and monitoring
projects designed to help obtain closure of the site.iii
