aSV measurements for these city offices started in March 2011, but stopped in the middle of June. The available data were extrapolated to the 4-month dose using data from Fukushima MP of Kempoku region where these cities are located. Then, values of Ri were estimated.

bSV measurements for Sukagawa City Office started in March 2011 but stopped at the beginning of September. Those for a branch office of Sukagawa City started in July and continued until March 2012. The first 4-month ambient dose equivalent at the branch office was estimated using (1) that estimated for the City Office and (2) a ratio deduced from a comparison between data on both sites in July and August 2011. Then, Ki and Ri values were estimated.
