Radiocesium Transfer in Forest Insect Communities after the Fukushima Dai-ichi Nuclear Power Plant Accident. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
To understand radiocesium transfer in the forest insect food web, we investigated the activity concentrations of radiocesium in forest insects in the Fukushima and Ibaraki Prefectures approximately 1.5-2.5 years after the Fukushima Dai-ichi Nuclear Power

137Cs in the meat of wild boars: a comparison of the impacts of Chernobyl and Fukushima [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The impact of Chernobyl on the 137Cs activities found in wild boars in Europe, even in remote locations from the NPP, has been much greater than the impact of Fukushima on boars in Japan.

Kinetics of Radiocesium Sorption in Lake Sediments

open access: yesHealth Physics, 1994
The sorption of radiocesium (137Cs) in sediments sampled from Lake Pamvotis of Ioannina was studied in a laboratory simulation. In a series of experiments, the kinetics of 137Cs sorption and 137Cs distribution profiles in sediment cores were investigated.

Radiocesium concentrations in wild mushrooms after the accident at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station: Follow-up study in Kawauchi village

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Since the accident at the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant, it has become well known that radiocesium tends to concentrate in wild mushrooms. During the recovery process after the accident at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station (FDNPS), it is ...

Radiocesium i renkött - ökad stråldos för samebefolkningen

open access: yesRangifer, 1990
Trots att nedfallet i Lappland var bara ungefär en tiondedel av det genomsnittliga nedfallet i Finland var kroppsinnehållet av radiocesium i samegruppen ungefär fyra gånger det genomsnittliga innehållet i hela befolkningen.

Whole body counter surveys of Miharu-town school children for four consecutive years after the Fukushima NPP accident

open access: yes, 2015
Comprehensive whole-body counter surveys of Miharu town school children have been conducted for four consecutive years, in 2011-2014. This represents the only long-term sampling-bias-free study of its type conducted after the Fukushima Dai-ichi accident.

Estimation of radiocesium dietary intake from time series data of radiocesium concentrations in sewer sludge

open access: yesEnvironment International, 2018
After the Fukushima accident, it became important to determine the quantity of radionuclide ingested by inhabitants. The most common methods currently used to obtain such data are the "market basket" (MB) and "duplicate" (DP) methods. However, it is difficult to conduct monitorings using these methods with sufficient frequency as they are high cost and

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

open access: yesLand, 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 ...

BABYSCAN - a whole body counter for small children in Fukushima

open access: yes, 2014
BABYSCAN, a whole body counter for small children with a detection limit for $^{137}$Cs of better than 50 Bq/body, was developed, and the first unit has been installed at a hospital in Fukushima, to help families with small children who are very much ...

Monitoring and radioecological characteristics of radiocesium in Japanese beef after the Fukushima nuclear accident [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
After the Fukushima nuclear accident, beef proved to be a problematic food item with several exceedances entering the market. The reason was contaminated rice straw that was fed to cattle.
