We discovered that how is the dose rate changing through this experiment. Also, we measured radiation dose rate in the air and garden of private house in Kawamaemachi shimookeuri azaogi district where located in about 30 km from the west of Iwaki city. 

Radiation dose rate of the ground with stones which absorb the radiation was 2.526 microsieverts , Radiation dose rate under gutter was 9.999 microsieverts.。
