Arctic Ozone Hole and Enhanced Mid‐Latitude Ozone Losses Due To Heterogeneous Halogen Chemistry Following a Regional Nuclear Conflict

open access: yesEarth's Future, Volume 13, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract In a global‐scale nuclear war, massive explosions, intense heat, and radioactive fallout would cause extensive harm to humanity and ecosystems. Further, previous studies of even regional‐scale nuclear conflicts show that the smoke from large‐scale fires caused by such weapons could lead to global‐scale ozone loss.

Consequences of the Chernobyl accident for reindeer husbandry in Sweden

open access: yesRangifer, 1990
Large parts of the reindeer hearding area in Sweden were contaminated with radioactive caesium from the Chernobyl fallout. During the first year after the accident no food with activity concentrations exceeding 300 Bq/kg was allowed to be sold in Sweden.

GENERALIZATION OF FACTORS FOR THE INVOLVEMENT OF RADIONUCLIDES IN WATER MIGRATION

open access: yesГеохімія техногенезу, 2020
This article supplements the previous publication on the principles of radioecological monitoring. It describes in more detail the procedure for the selection of factors affecting the mobilization (or remobilization) and aqueous removal of 90Sr.

From “Modern Midas Mineral” to “Satanic Substance”: Uranium, Unions, and the Atomic Age

open access: yesAustralian Journal of Politics &History, Volume 71, Issue 4, Page 735-752, December 2025.
Uranium mining and export was a major flashpoint for political debate in 1970's Australia. However, there has been relatively little investigation into how uranium was understood and contested before this time. This paper draws on labour movement publications and other archival sources to reveal lesser‐known antecedents to the anti‐uranium movement in ...

Body Burdens of Cesium-137 and Potassium-40 in Twenty-One Members of the Wintering Party of the 16th Japanese Antarctic Research Expedition 1975

open access: yesAntarctic Record, 1975
The radioactive nuclides in human body are roughly classified into two categories. The one is naturally existed radioactive nuclides, and the other is radioactive nuclides of fallout from the nuclear fission of a large scale such as tests of nuclear ...

A continuous 500‐year sediment record of inundation by local and distant tsunamis in South‐Central Chile (40.1°S)

open access: yesThe Depositional Record, Volume 11, Issue 5, Page 1285-1310, November 2025.
Tsunami events over the past 500 years inundated Laguna Gemela West (Chile), leading to distinct sandy deposits in the lake record. This provides a complete perspective on tsunami inundation, including giant tsunamis, small local tsunamis and tsunamis that originated >100 km away from the site.

Radiocesium in lichens and reindeer after the Chernobyl accident

open access: yesRangifer, 1990
After the Chernobyl accident the sampling and measuring program of the Finnish Centre for Radiation and Nuclear Safety was intensified both for surveillance and research purposes. The deposition pattern of radionuclides was more complicated than from the
