Concerning atmospherically released tritium (T) and C-14 we have developed a new method, which can analyze their fluxes and the deposition velocities. Firstly, a simultaneous sampling system for the speciation of atmospheric tritium and C-14 has been developed. This system determines varieties of chemical forms of tritium and C-14, namely tritiated water (HTO), elemental tritium gas (HT) and tritiated methane (CH$$_{3}$$T) for tritium, $$^{14}$$CO$$_{2}$$ and 14C H4 for C-14, respectively. Secondly, a new method was developed to determine HT and $$^{14}$$CO$$_{2}$$ deposition velocities. This method can determine their fluxes and the deposition velocities without any tritium and C-14 sources.
