In Time of Emergency A Citizen's Handbook on Nuclear Attack, Natural Disasters (1968) In addition to protecting people from fallout radiation, most fallout shelters also would provide some limited protection against the blast and heat effects of nuclear explosions that were not close by. In Time of Emergency A Citizen's Handbook on Nuclear Attack, Natural Disasters (1968) They would be global, affecting nations remote from the fighting for many years after the holocaust, because of the way nuclear explosions behave in the atmosphere and the radioactive products released by nuclear bursts. Worldwide Effects of Nuclear War: Some Perspectives In nuclear explosions, about 90 percent of the energy is released in less than one millionth of a second. Worldwide Effects of Nuclear War: Some Perspectives Both the local and worldwide fallout hazards of nuclear explosions depend on a variety of interacting factors: weapon design, explosive force, altitude and latitude of detonation, time of year, and local weather conditions.
