Proposal Objectives:  The primary objective of this U.S.-Hungary                cooperative research project between Dr. Gerald Ward and Dr. James              Johnson of Colorado State University and their Hungarian colleague, Dr.         Pal Kralovanszky, of the Technical University of Budapest is to design a        model to simulate the transfer of radionuclides through the animal food-        chain to humans.  Samples collected in Hungary will be analyzed for             radiocesium originating from the Chernobyl accident to enable comparison        of data from world wide fallout in the 1960's with fallout from a               nuclear reactor accident.                                                                                                                                       Relevance of Proposal to Program Objectives:  This biotic systems               project fulfills the program objective of advancing scientific knowledge        by enabling experts in the United States and Eastern Europe to combine          complementary talents, pool resources, and share research data and              facilities in areas of strong mutual interest and competence.  Access to        a new data set from such a unique event presents many scientific                opportunities for analysis  using state-of-the-art methods.                                                                                                     Merit:  The proposal ranks in the Excellent/Very Good category.  Its            technical merit therefore warrants NSF support.  The U.S. and Hungarian         researchers are well regarded and the rationale for international               cooperation, in terms of anticipated mutual scientific benifits, is             clearly articulated.  This cooperation should yield significant, more           accurate research results, specifically useful in estimating and                characterizing food-chain contamination to be expected from a nuclear           reactor accident.                                                                                                                                               Interrelated Projects:  None.                                                                                                                                   Funding:  The requested budget covers the incremental costs to the U.S.         of international cooperation associated with the research, in accordance        with program guidelines.
