Random samples of the flounder populations from the indirectly polluted and reference mesocosms were examined every 2 months for epidermal diseases (lymphocystis, skin ulcers, fin rot) and then released.
Flounder were examined for signs of the external diseases lymphocystis, skin ulcers, and fin rot in the same manner as in the field study that was carried out in the Dutch coastal waters (4).
Concentrations in mussels, sticklebacks, and flounder livers were higher, reflecting a higher lipid content of these animals or tissues, but the gradient was less pronounced, for example, in the case of flounder liver 1:3:6.

The effect on the spectrum is that instead of a sharp peak at the wavelength of the atomic transition, you get a broad peak.
The width of this peak is determined by the degree of random motion and hence the temperature.

 Hot seafood - 31 October 1998 - New Scientist
FLOUNDER, sole and mussels in Britain's largest estuary are contaminated with levels of radioactive tritium hundreds of times higher than expected.
Scientists working for the British government had assumed, based on advice from the UN International Atomic Energy Agency in Vienna, that the concentrations of tritium per kilogram of fish in the area would be roughly the same as those in each litre of seawater.
Although levels of tritium in the seawater are less than 100 becquerels per litre, those in flounder, sole and mussels were hundreds of times higher.

A draft of the study -- prepared by NRC professional staff and reviewed by a private consultant -- concluded that environmental impacts from Pilgrim were minimal, and that replacing Pilgrim's energy by alternate means such as coal-burning electric generations would be much worse for the environment.
The study said the only impacts that rose to the level of "moderate" were on winter flounder and rainbow smelt.
He said an ongoing program to release hatchery-spawned flounder into the bay is succeeding in replacing lost winter flounder.

 FLASH For October 2003
Back at the secret US atomic research establishment in the New Mexico deserts at Los Alamos, some of those who had worked on the "Bomb", as it would be presently known, were ecstatic.
He had believed the secret could be kept, and the detection of the blast was another unsettling bit of evidence of the technical lead of the West, though in fact the Americans would have missed it if it had occurred much earlier.
In fact, in 1954 the USSR conducted a test in which an atomic bomb was dropped near a village in the Urals, with troops entering the contaminated area a half hour after the blast, wearing some degree of protective gear.
