Desorption of 137Cs+ from mosses [PDF]
Mosses are biomonitors that accumulate large amounts of various pollutants including radionuclides. In this work we investigated the possibility of 137Cs extraction from mosses, as well as the significance of species specificity on the efficiency of ...

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.

Aerosol deposition and origin in French mountains estimated with soil inventories of 210Pb and artificial radionuclides [PDF]
Radionuclide inventories were measured in soils from different French mountainous areas: Chaîne des Puys (Massif Central), Eastern Corsica, Jura, Montagne Noire, Savoie, Vosges and Rhine Valley. 210Pb soil inventories were used to estimate long-term (>75
