Aerosols in surface air over the North Atlantic Ocean were collected on air filters on board J. Charcot in September and October 1969 and France during about five months in 1970. The longitudinal variations of fission products and •Be concentrations confirm the existence on the earth's surface of 'hot spots' where fallout is very important.
