Abstract
Atmospheric fallout of7Be was measured over a 2 year period January 1995–January 1997 at Damascus city 33 No 727 m above sea level The annual total deposition of7Be was found to be 420 and 634 Bq·m−2 for 1995 and 1996 respectively reflecting a Mediterranean climate where two well recognized periods are dominant wet and dry The depositions in the wet periods were 303 Bq·m−2 and 517 Bq·m−2 for 1995 and 1996 respectively while unexpected equal deposition rates in the two dry periods were found to be about 117 Bq·m−2 In addition monthly deposition rate of7Be showed a maxima in February in 1995 and January for 1996 Moreover a comparison has been set for our measurements and other data obtained at different locations in the world
