Abstract: The continuous-point-source computer code calculates concentrations and surface deposition of radioactive and chemical pollutants at distances from 0.1 to 100 km, assuming a Gaussian plume. The basic input is atmospheric stability category and wind speed, but a number of refinements are also included.

Historical Doses from Tritiated Water and Tritiated Hydrogen Gas Released to the Atmosphere from Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) Part 1. Description of Tritium Dose Model (DCART) for Routine Releases from LLNL

TL;DR: DCART (Doses from Chronic Atmospheric Releases of Tritium) is a spreadsheet model developed at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) that calculates doses from inhalation of tritiated hydrogen gas (HT), inhalation and skin absorption of tritated water (HTO), and ingestion of HTO and organically bound tritium (OBT) to adult, child (age 10), and infant (age 6 months to 1 year) from routine atmospheric releases of HT and HTO as mentioned in this paper.
Dose to the public from tritium released to the atmosphere from the Livermore site of Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, 1953 through 2005.
TL;DR: A tritium dose reconstruction was undertaken to chronicle both the annual doses to the public for each year of operations and the doses from seven accidental releases, which showed all predicted doses from routine and accidental releases were well below regulatory limits.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used an equation derived from the time-dependent tritium model, UFOTRI, and parameter values based on expert judgment to estimate the maximum exposure of the maximally exposed individual (MEI) to tritiated hydrogen gas (HT) releases.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present historical information about tritium released routinely and accidentally from all Livermore Site Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) facilities and from the Tritium Research Laboratory of Sandia National Laboratories/CA (SNL/CA) between 1953 through 2005.
