Some individuals participated in more than one series and are included in the total count for each series in which they participated.

Yields for thermonuclear tests are estimates; actual yields are still classified.

T (tower), B (balloon), S (surface), A (air burst), UW (under water), BA (barge).

Includes RANGER (1951), BUSTER-JANGLE (1951), TUMBLER-SNAPPER (1952), TEAPOT (1955), and HARDTACK II (1958). Also included are three 1962 PLOWSHARE tests.

Includes SANDSTONE (1948), IVY (1952),WIGWAM (1955) and DOMINIC (1962).

Includes the South Atlantic Ocean and Japan.

Includes ARGUS (1958), occupation troops at Hiroshima or Nagasaki in 1945–1946, as well as some individuals present at test sites between test series and identified in the DTRA database as “nonparticipants” for that time interval.
