Sanguine/Seafarer Extremely Low Frequency Electromagnetic Fields: Effect of Long-Term Exposure on Soil Arthropods in Nature.
Abstract
A study of the long-term biological impact of extremely low frequency (ELF) non-ionizing electromagnetic radiation was continued at the Navy's Wisconsin Test Facility. Population analyses of soil arthropods and a floral survey were performed on nine exposed and six control plots. Comparisons with floral surveys taken three or four years earlier suggest normal vegetational changes and succession in exposed plots and environs. Phenomena observed in the exposed and control plots are of a shared nature and thus tend to exclude an ELF electromagnetic radiation effect. Data observed to date do not support the hypothesis that low-level non-ionizing ELF electromagnetic fields have had a demonstrable impact on populations of soil arthropods and surrounding flora after six years of exposure.
