Development of logical structure for multi-unit probabilistic safety assessment

Nuclear Engineering and Technology, 2018
Site or multi-unit (MU) risk assessment has been a major issue in the field of nuclear safety study since the Fukushima accident in 2011. There have been few methods or experiences for MU risk assessment because the Fukushima accident was the first real ...

War as a Phenomenon of Inquiry in Management Studies

Journal of Management Studies, Volume 63, Issue 6, Page 2363-2397, September 2026.
Abstract We argue that war as a phenomenon deserves more focused attention in management. First, we highlight why war is an important and relevant area of inquiry for management scholars. We then integrate scattered conversations on war in management studies into a framework structured around three building blocks – (a) the nature of war from an ...

Integrating Multiple Approaches to Reveal the Spatiotemporal Pattern of Soil Erosion in Mollisol Watershed

Land Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 14, Page 10355-10370, 30 August 2026.
ABSTRACT Although numerous prediction methods have been developed, scientific estimation of the spatiotemporal pattern of soil erosion at the watershed scale remains challenging. In this study, fallout radionuclides of 210Pbex and 137Cs were used to estimate average annual soil erosion and deposition in a Mollisol watershed in Northeast China ...

Combining the Underwater Vision Profiler 6 with sediment traps to measure in situ velocity of marine particles

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, Volume 24, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Particles sinking from the surface to the deep ocean play a key role in the biological carbon pump, whose efficiency depends partly on sinking velocities. Over the last decade, in situ imaging has enabled critical advances in our understanding of particle dynamics in the ocean.

Effects of the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear accident on goshawk reproduction [PDF]

Scientific Reports, 2015
AbstractAlthough the influence of nuclear accidents on the reproduction of top predators has not been investigated, it is important that we identify the effects of such accidents because humans are also top predators. We conducted field observation for 22 years and analysed the reproductive performance of the goshawk (Accipiter gentilis fujiyamae), a ...

Scale‐aware impact modelling for atmospheric releases of radioactive material

Weather, Volume 81, Issue 7, Page 205-211, July 2026.
Since the Fukushima nuclear power plant disaster in 2011, the UK has developed the process of Joint Agency Modelling (JAM), which provides advice to government in case of atmospheric releases of radioactive material. The timely deployment of JAM requires a prior estimate of the extent to which impacts could reach. Thus, to develop a fast pre‐calculator
