Original Note:
This infographic is misleading. It uses improper scaling of a 3-dimensional object based on linear height to greatly exaggerate the difference between the explosions. In addition, it ignores the fact that mushroom cloud volume does not scale linearly with yield. https://web.archive.org/web/20130830043914/http://www.atomicarchive.com/Effects/effects9.shtml https://web.archive.org/web/20181103200952/http://www.datavis.ca/gallery/index.php https://www.researchgate.net/figure/Model-representation-of-a-nuclear-mushroom-cloud-and-the-total-activity-fraction-in-each_fig1_262776367
