Abstract
The 36Cl/Cl ratios measured in groundwater were used to reconstruct the fallout rates for radioactive 36Cl at Odense. The calculated fallout values exceeded the fallout estimated based on data from the Dye-3 ice core in Greenland. Recycling of the bomb peak fallout seems to be the most probable reason of the high values measured. The local extent of this process is difficult to quantify, which impedes the use of 36Cl for dating.
