Wildfires in the Chornobyl exclusion zone—Risks and consequences [PDF]
Integrated Environmental Assessment and Management, 2021 Abstract Following the 1986 Chornobyl accident, an area approaching 5000 km2 surrounding the nuclear plant was abandoned, creating the Chornobyl exclusion zone (CEZ). Although this area likely contains the most radioactive terrestrial ecosystem on earth, the absence of humans and associated activities for nearly 35 years since the ...

Chornobyl exclusion zone: current status and challenges
Annals of the ICRP, 2021Comparisons of the large nuclear accidents that occurred at the nuclear power plants in Chornobyl and Fukushima usually focus on the emission of radionuclides, the contamination area, doses to the public and liquidation workers, etc. However, little attention has been paid to various factors that affect decisions regarding the future development of ...

Chornobyl, radiation, neural tube defects, and microcephaly
European Journal of Medical Genetics, 2018Pregnant women residing in areas impacted by the Chornobyl ionizing radiation of the Rivne Province in Ukraine have persistent higher levels of incorporated cesium-137. In these areas the neural tube defects and microcephaly rates are significantly higher than in areas with lower maternal cesium-137 incorporated levels.

Malformations in a Chornobyl-Impacted Region
Pediatrics, 2010OBJECTIVE:One of the populations most exposed to chronic low-dose radiation from Chornobyl (Chernobyl in Russian) lives in Polissia, the region representing the northern half of Rivne Province (Oblast) in Ukraine. Here the patterns and population rates of malformations are reported and possible etiologic factors and regional contrasts are explored ...

Linking bioenergetics and radiation dose in Chornobyl rodents
Journal of Experimental BiologyABSTRACT High metabolic rate may provide fitness benefits for individuals. But high metabolic rates incur energetic costs and the need to ingest more food, increasing the risks of ingesting harmful substances from the environment. How organisms respond to elevated ionizing radiation is an important question in the light of pollution from

Childhood leukemia in Ukraine after the Chornobyl accident
Radiation and Environmental Biophysics, 2019This population-based ecological study analyzes the prevalence of childhood leukemia in Ukraine before and after the Chornobyl nuclear power plant accident, based on the contamination status of the territory, time period, gender, and age. Three regions-Zhytomyr, Kyiv (except Kyiv city), and Chernihiv were included as areas contaminated by radioactive ...
