Oceanographic Model for the Dispersion of Wastes Disposed of in the Deep Sea

This document was originally approved by GESAMP (the IMO/FAO/UNESCO/WMO/WHO/IAEA/UN/UNEP Joint Group of Experts on the Scientific Aspects of Marine Pollution) in March 1983 at its thirteenth session for publication as GESAMP Reports and Studies No. 19. Recognizing that its usefulness is far broader than its application to calculations of concentrations of radioactive materials in the deep sea, the IAEA has undertaken to republish the report in its Technical Reports Series with the concurrence of the other technical bodies of GESAMP.
