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 ...

We summarize the current state of knowledge on the age of the Middle Pleistocene ice advances into northern central Europe and provide 25 new single‐grain feldspar luminescence ages of Elsterian and Saalian glacigenic sediments to constrain the age of the ice advances and their tentative correlation with marine isotope stages/substages.

Abstract Most business students are not interested in becoming lawyers. Therefore, business law and legal environment instructors must convey why students should study business law. To assist instructors (especially first‐time ones), this teaching note presents interrelated pedagogical questions to introduce the first week of class.

Modeling radionuclide activity in helophytes during emergency contamination of fishery reservoirs [PDF]
Using chamber models of the dynamics of 90Sr, 103,106Ru, 134,137Cs, 141,144Се in water masses and plants, the efficiency of extraction of aboveground organs of HELOPHYTES after a single emergency entry of radioactive fallout into fishery reservoirs with ...

Erosion rates were quantified using field methods (137Cs, sediment loading) and two landform evolution models (LEMs), SIBERIA and SSSPAM, on a grazed catchment analogous to nearby mining sites, filling the gap in field data comparisons. Model estimates aligned with field data, demonstrating both LEMs' predictive potential for erosion in grazed ...

ANALYSIS OF THE LONG-TERM DYNAMICS OF EXTERNAL DOSES OF THE POPULATION AFTER THE CHERNOBYL ACCIDENT
The paper presents an analysis of the dynamics of individual doses of external exposure among the population living for almost 20 years in the territories affected by the radioactive contamination due to the Chernobyl NPP accident.

Data fusion of gamma and x‐ray spectra via Common Dimensions for soil erosion characterization
Abstract This study explores the synergistic application of energy dispersive x‐ray fluorescence (EDXRF) and gamma‐ray spectrometry (GRS) raw spectra to characterize soil redistribution. The evaluation employs Common Dimensions (ComDim), a multiblock non‐supervised machine‐learning technique, to identify shared latent patterns across nuclear and atomic

Historical Records of Nutrient Loading Into End‐Member Mid‐Latitude Lakes
Abstract Human‐induced environmental changes impact lakes in temperate regions, but detailed lake basin histories that pre‐date instrumental records are limited. Most paleolimnological reconstructions are used to examine single lakes in isolation, making it difficult to separate regional forcings from morphological influences on a sedimentary signal ...

Radiocesium concentrations in the lichen-reindeer/caribou food chain: Before and after Chernobyl
This paper reviews historical concentrations of radiocesium (Cs-137) in the reindeer/caribou food chain in Alaska. These data, along with available kinetic models which describe the movement of radiocesium through the food chain, are used to predict ...

This article explores the activities of daily life in a village neighbouring the TEPCO nuclear power plant in Fukushima. It argues that one of the potentials of taking a dwelling perspective – a phenomenological approach to living within the ecological and social environments – emerges most compellingly within a polluted landscape.
