Environmental Measurement Laboratory EML

One of the most impressive programmes of airborne radioactivity is the one implemented by the Environmental Measurement Laboratory (EML) in New York, USA. This started in January of 1963 as a continuation of a programme that was initiated by the U.S. Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) in 1957, and was continued by them until the end of 1962.
