The Chernobyl Reference Horizon (?) in the Greenland Ice Sheet [PDF]
, 1989 Published reports of the presence of radioactive debris from the Chernobyl reactor accident in snow on the Greenland ice sheet raised the strong prospect that such debris might constitute a valuable time stratigraphic marker all over the ice sheet. Large

Mid- to long-term radiocesium wash-off from contaminated catchments at Chernobyl and Fukushima.
Water Research, 2020 We analyzed mid- to long-term 137Cs wash-off from the catchments contaminated due to the Chernobyl accident in 1986 and the Fukushima Dai-ichi Nuclear Power Plant accident in 2011.

Are passive smoking, air pollution and obesity a greater mortality risk than major radiation incidents? [PDF]
, 2007 Background Following a nuclear incident, the communication and perception of radiation risk becomes a (perhaps the) major public health issue. In response to such incidents it is therefore crucial to communicate radiation health risks in the context of ...
