Dataset on Cs-137 in waters surrounding Taiwan

Data in Brief, 2023
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.

Recovery of Cs-137 from electric arc furnace dust by lixiviation

Case Studies in Chemical and Environmental Engineering, 2022
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

Chronic Cs-137 incorporation in children's organs

Swiss Medical Weekly, 2003
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

Impact of radiocesium contamination in flood sediment deposited after the 2019 typhoon on decontaminated fields of Fukushima Prefecture, Japan

Comptes Rendus. Géoscience, 2022
Sediment that has deposited after the flood generated by the 2019 typhoon (referred to as Flood Sediment, FS) was collected along two rivers in eastern Fukushima Prefecture, Japan to determine the total and exchangeable radiocesium ($^{137}\mathrm{Cs}$),

Recent ¹³⁷Cs Distribution in the Aegean Sea, Greece

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022
Recent spatial and vertical distributions of 137Cs activity concentration in the Aegean Sea are presented almost 30 years after the Chernobyl accident. The study aims to provide the current radioactivity levels of 137Cs in the Aegean Sea and to combine ...

Transport of FNPP1-derived radiocaesium from subtropical mode water in the western North Pacific Ocean to the Sea of Japan [PDF]

Ocean Science, 2018
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.

Reconstruction of the Long-Term Dynamics of Particulate Concentrations and Solid–Liquid Distribution of Radiocesium in Three Severely Contaminated Water Bodies of the Chernobyl Exclusion Zone Based on Current Depth Distribution in Bottom Sediments

Land, 2021
Given the importance of understanding long-term dynamics of radionuclides in the environment in general, and major gaps in the knowledge of 137Cs particulate forms in Chernobyl exclusion zone water bodies, three heavily contaminated water bodies (Lakes ...

Developing a database for Cs-137 radioactivity concentration and assessing residual levels in surface soils of Quang Ninh, Hai Phong, and Lang Son provinces

Vietnam Journal of Science, Technology and Engineering, 2022
The radioactivity concentration of Cs-137 was determined in 826 soil samples collected from Hai Phong, Quang Ninh, and Lang Son. The residual levels of Cs-137 have also been assessed and compared with previous publications to obtain a trend in Cs-137 in
