摘要: Dust fallout fluxes of 210Pb and 7Be were measured in Kuwait during October 2009–August 2011. The annual average depositional 134 422 Bq m−2, respectively. temporal variations both radionuclides showed a maximum deposition April 2010 A strong linear relationship between was found. dust rate about 50 mg m−2 h−1 with 460 mg m−2 h−1, while the extreme value 664 mg m−2 h−1 recorded March 2011 when massive storm hit Kuwait. has correlation because its terrestrial abundance. Whereas radionuclide shows weaker deposition.
