Dataset on Cs-137 in waters surrounding Taiwan [PDF]
The Fukushima accident released short-lived Cs-134 and longer-lived Cs-137 to the ocean. The amount, although substantial, is much less than that produced during the atomic bomb tests 60 yrs ago.

Regional distribution and isotope ratios of radiocesium from the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power station and global fallout in Tokai-mura [PDF]
Due to the accident at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station (FDNPS), radiocesium such as 134 Cs, 135 Cs, and 137 Cs was dispersed over a wide area of eastern Japan and mixed with radiocesium from global fallout.

Chronic Cs-137 incorporation in children's organs
In Belarus's Gomel region, which was heavily contaminated by fallout from the Chernobyl disaster, we have studied the evolution of the Cs-137 load in the organisms of the rural population, in particular children, since 1990. Children have a higher average burden of Cs-137 compared with that of adults living in the same community. We measured the Cs-137

Ordinary-Portland-cement solidification of Cs-137 contaminated electric arc furnace dust from steel production industry in Thailand [PDF]
The cementation was used to immobilize the Cs-137 contaminated electric arc furnace dust (EAFD). Various mixing recipes were used to prepare the EAFD-cement waste form specimens.

Variation in Atmospheric 137Cs and the Carriers in Aerosol Samples Obtained from a Heavily Contaminated Area of Fukushima Prefecture [PDF]
Even a decade after the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant (FDNPP) accident on 11 March 2011, fluctuations in atmospheric 137Cs were still observed, and explanations for the fluctuations and their carriers remained elusive.

Recovery of Cs-137 from electric arc furnace dust by lixiviation
An orphan radioactive source of Cs-137 was inadvertently melted in an electric arc furnace, generating large volumes of electric arc furnace dusts contaminated with Cs-137 (137Cs-EAFD). This work proposes the Cs-137 recovery from 137Cs-EAFD by applying a

Transport of FNPP1-derived radiocaesium from subtropical mode water in the western North Pacific Ocean to the Sea of Japan [PDF]
This study investigated the spatio-temporal variations in activity concentrations in the Sea of Japan (SOJ) of 137Cs and these transport process from the North Pacific Ocean to the SOJ through the East China Sea (ECS) during 2012–2016.
