Studies of 137Cs transfer in soil‐fern system
Fern accumulates radionuclides in abundance, including 137Cs. Tranfer of 137Cs and 40K in plants which have different root systems (fern or grass), or have no roots at all (moss) was compared.

Effect of soil organic matter on the fate of 137Cs vertical distribution in forest soils
Understanding the fate of the vertical distribution of radiocesium (137Cs) in Japanese forest soils is key to assessing the radioecological consequences of the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant (FDNPP) accident.

Accumulation of 137Cs by herbaceous plants on peat-bog soils in the West Polissya of Ukraine [PDF]
Levels of 137Cs accumulation by herbaceous plants on peat-bog soils lands of the Stare Selo settlement of Rokytne district of Rivne region were investigated 31 years after the Chernobyl accident.

An imaging neutron/gamma-ray spectrometer [PDF]
We present the test results of a neutron/gamma-ray imaging spectrometer for the identification and location of radioactive and special nuclear materials. Radioactive materials that could be fashioned into a radiation dispersal device typically emit gamma

Evaluation of the impact of the 137Cs supply from rivers to coastal waters off Fukushima on the 137Cs behavior in seabed sediment [PDF]
The accident at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant (FDNPP) caused a radioactive contamination in seabed sediment. The 137Cs supply from rivers could be an important process for the long-term behavior of 137Cs in seabed sediment.

Vertical distribution of 137Cs in cultivated and undisturbed areas [PDF]
This paper introduces the distribution background and unique characteristics of 137Cs in cultivated and undisturbed areas. The samples were taken from three measuring points of the depth of 1 m.
