It can also be produced at very low levels by radio-disintegration of U and Th (Sharma and Middleton 1989). Although all radioactive Be isotopes are produced in the atmosphere via cosmic-ray reactions (Arnold 1956; Lal and Peters 1967; Morris et al., Chapter 5, this volume), in this paper, we are most interested in 10Be produced...
