ON THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN AMBIENT DOSE EQUIVALENT AND ABSORBED DOSE IN AIR IN THE CASE OF LARGE-SCALE CONTAMINATION OF THE ENVIRONMENT BY RADIOACTIVE CESIUM

Радиационная гигиена, 2015
One of the main aims of the study was an experimental determination of the conversion coefficient from ambient dose equivalent rate, Н*(10), to absorbed dose rate in air, D, in the case of radioactive contamination of the environment following the ...

Assessment of individual external exposure doses based on environmental radiation in areas affected by the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station accident

Environment International
Assessing individual external exposure doses from ambient dose equivalents is valuable for predictive and retrospective purposes when personal dosimeters are impractical.

Marginal abatement costs for reducing leaching of nitrates in Croatian agriculture [PDF]

, 2005
The aim of this paper is to estimate marginal abatement costs (MAC) of N-fertiliser tax policies which aim to prevent NO3 levels from rising. Estimates of MAC provide information on how large reductions in Nfertilisation rates should be before other ...

Measurement of effective activity concentration of natural radionuclides insitu for assessment of ambient dose equivalent rate in urban environments

Радиационная гигиена
At present, the dose rate of gamma radiation from technogenic radionuclides in the territories contaminated as a result of the Chernobyl accident has significantly decreased and, in many cases, is comparable to the dose rate of gamma radiation from ...
