System Description: These three electronic spreadsheets, titled "Deer, Geese, Duck" (1994), "Duckweed" (1992-1994), and "Fish" (1994), record gamma counts and nonradiological analyses of wildlife, plants, and fish used in risk assessment studies conducted by Dr. Gordon Blaylock. Each spreadsheet includes a sampling date; sample weight; gamma scan results, including counts for cesium-137; radiological counts; and nonradiological analyses. Reports can be generated in a variety of formats depending on the searching and sorting criteria used. The system is backed-up on a weekly basis onto floppy disks stored next to the computer.
