What is the difference between a radionuclide laboratory and radionuclide station?

Radionuclide stations use air samplers to detect radioactive particles released from atmospheric explosions or noble gases vented from underground and underwater explosions. The radionuclide labs then analyze those samples that are suspected of containing radionuclide material, which may have been produced by a nuclear explosion.
