Estimation of external dose by car-borne survey in Kerala, India. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
A car-borne survey was carried out in Kerala, India to estimate external dose. Measurements were made with a 3-in × 3-in NaI(Tl) scintillation spectrometer from September 23 to 27, 2013. The routes were selected from 12 Panchayats in Karunagappally Taluk

External dose evaluation based on detailed air dose rate measurements in living environments

open access: yesJournal of Environmental Radioactivity, 2019
A method was devised to estimate the realistic external doses of residents expected to return to their homes after evacuation orders are lifted. For 196 residents expected to return to six towns and villages, surveys were administered in FY 2014-2016. After interviewing residents about their expected life patterns after their return, detailed air dose ...

Organ doses of the fetus from external environmental exposures [PDF]

open access: yesRadiation and Environmental Biophysics, 2021
AbstractThis article presents nuclide-specific organ dose rate coefficients for environmental external exposures due to soil contamination assumed as a planar source at a depth of 0.5 g cm−2in the soil and submersion to contaminated air, for a pregnant female and its fetus at the 24th week of gestation.
