You can see that after the 6 hour detection run, none of these samples measured at levels higher than the MDC. As in the camera analogy, this would indicate that the resolution, or statistics, is not resolved enough to determine the real concentration. Thus, the further investigation with each sample on the detector for a 2 week duration lowers the MDC, improves the statistics, and provides a much clearer picture of the radionuclide concentrations in these samples.https://fukushimainform.ca/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/inform-salmon-2015-river_update-011.pnginform-salmon-2015-river_update-01Results of the 2015 InFORM biotic monitoring program with updated results (larger, bold italics) where individual fish samples were reanalyzed to determine the presence of the Fukushima fingerprint isotope, 134-Cs.https://fukushimainform.ca/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/mdc-like-shutter-speed2.pngmdc-like-shutter-speedAdditional time on the gamma spectrometer detector provides us with a clearer picture of the radionuclides present in the sample.https://fukushimainform.ca/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/inform-salmon-2015-river_update-01.pnginform-salmon-2015-river_update-01Results of the 2015 InFORM biotic monitoring program with updated results (larger, bold italics) where individual fish samples were reanalyzed in search of the Fukushima fingerprint isotope, 134-Cs. https://fukushimainform.ca/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/salmon-2015-fukushima-check-011.pngsalmon-2015-fukushima-check-01https://fukushimainform.ca/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/inform-salmon-2015-6-hr-vs-2-wk-011.pnginform-salmon-2015-6-hr-vs-2-wk-01Results from five of the seven re-examined 2015 samples that tested positive for 137-Cs.https://fukushimainform.ca/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/mdc-vs-time-01.pngmdc-vs-time-01While only short times on the detector are needed for rather contaminated samples, a longer duration in the detector lowers the Minimum Detectable Concentration (MDC) and improves the statistics necessary to resolve lower levels of contamination. https://fukushimainform.ca/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/chinook_salmon_oncorhynchus_tshawytscha_wiki.jpgchinook_salmon_oncorhynchus_tshawytscha_wikihttps://fukushimainform.ca/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/measurement-time-01-01.pngmeasurement-time-01-01https://fukushimainform.ca/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/inform-salmon-2015-river_update-01.pnginform-salmon-2015-river_update-01Results of the 2015 InFORM biotic monitoring program with updated results (larger, bold italics) where individual fish samples were reanalyzed in search of the Fukushima fingerprint isotope, 134-Cs. 2018-01-17T20:15:55+00:00monthlyhttps://fukushimainform.ca/2017/07/18/cruising-big-blue-17-the-life-aquatic/https://fukushimainform.ca/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/laurier-2017-july-13th.pngLaurier 2017 - July 13thhttps://fukushimainform.ca/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/extra_large_7e6e30fbb155a6ff137a217d59a67950.jpgOLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA2017-07-31T19:01:00+00:00monthlyhttps://fukushimainform.ca/2017/07/04/cruising-big-blue-17-i-need-to-explore/https://fukushimainform.ca/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/20170630_120029.jpg20170630_120029https://fukushimainform.ca/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/20170630_120144-1.jpg20170630_120144-1https://fukushimainform.ca/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/img_5301.jpgIMG_53012017-07-31T19:00:23+00:00monthlyhttps://fukushimainform.ca/2017/07/07/cruising-big-blue-17-out-of-sight-of-land/https://fukushimainform.ca/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/laurier-2017-july-6th.pngLaurier 2017 - July 6th2017-07-31T18:59:40+00:00monthlyhttps://fukushimainform.ca/2017/07/12/cruising-big-blue-17-mostly-regarding-food/https://fukushimainform.ca/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/apex_deployment_germany-s.jpgapex_deployment_germany-shttps://fukushimainform.ca/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/img_34092.jpgIMG_3409Leaving Victoriahttps://fukushimainform.ca/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/dsc_0113.jpgDSC_0113https://fukushimainform.ca/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/dsc_0104.jpgDSC_0104https://fukushimainform.ca/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/dsc_0100.jpgDSC_0100Approaching Alaskahttps://fukushimainform.ca/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/dsc_0077.jpgDSC_0077https://fukushimainform.ca/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/dsc_0053.jpgDSC_0053https://fukushimainform.ca/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/dsc_0043.jpgDSC_0043https://fukushimainform.ca/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/dsc_0034.jpgDSC_0034https://fukushimainform.ca/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/dsc_0031.jpgDSC_00312017-07-31T18:58:15+00:00monthlyhttps://fukushimainform.ca/2017/07/19/swimming-robot-probes-fukushima-reactor-to-find-melted-fuel/https://fukushimainform.ca/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/little-sunfish.jpeglittle sunfishFILE - In this June 15, 2017, file photo, newly developed robot for underwater investigation at the Fukushima’s damaged reactor, moves in the water at a Toshiba Corp. test facility in Yokosuka, near Tokyo.

TransectSatellite measurements of ocean temperature (illustrated by color) from July 28th to August 4th and the direction of currents (white arrows) help show where radionuclides from Fukushima are transported. Large scale currents transport water westward across the Pacific. Upwelling along the west coast of North America in the summertime brings cold deep water to the surface and transports water offshore. Circles indicate the locations where water samples were collected. White circles indicate that no cesium-134 was detected. Blue circles indicate locations were low levels of cesium-134 were detected. No cesium-134 has yet been detected along the coast, but low levels have been detected offshore.
