Selective chemical binding enhances cesium tolerance in plants through inhibition of cesium uptake [PDF]
High concentrations of cesium (Cs+) inhibit plant growth but the detailed mechanisms of Cs+ uptake, transport and response in plants are not well known.

To improve understanding of coastal soil ‘blue carbon’, we describe a data structure designed to standardize data reporting and introduce version 1.0.0. of the Coastal Carbon Library, as well as the Coastal Carbon Atlas, an application that can be used to query, and download it.

Modelling of radiocesium transfer in the lichen-reindeer/caribou-wolf food chain
The environmental contaminate radiocesium (cesium-137) has been shown to be of value as a marker in food selection and intake studies. Its greatest potential value as a food marker is in the subarctic/arctic regions, particularly in the lichen to ...

Time trends in radiocaesium in the Japanese diet following nuclear weapons testing and Chernobyl:implications for long term contamination post-Fukushima [PDF]
Estimation of time changes in radiocaesium in foodstuffs is key to predicting the long term impact of the Fukushima accident on the Japanese diet. We have modelled >4000 measurements, spanning 50 years, of 137Cs in foodstuffs and whole diet in Japan ...

The Chernobyl accident had a great impact on the semidomestic reindeer husbandry in central Norway. Seasonal differences in habitat and diet resulted in large variations in observed radiocesium concentrations in reindeer after the Chernobyl accident.

Experimental system to displace radioisotopes from upper to deeper soil layers: chemical research [PDF]
Background Radioisotopes are introduced into the environment following nuclear power plant accidents or nuclear weapons tests. The immobility of these radioactive elements in uppermost soil layers represents a problem for human health, since they can ...

A novel role for methyl cysteinate, a cysteine derivative, in cesium accumulation in Arabidopsis thaliana [PDF]
Phytoaccumulation is a technique to extract metals from soil utilising ability of plants. Cesium is a valuable metal while radioactive isotopes of cesium can be hazardous.

Radiocaesium transfer and radiation exposure of frogs in Fukushima Prefecture [PDF]
The International Commission on Radiological Protection has proposed an environmental assessment framework. This includes ionising radiation exposure assessment for different frog life-stages, but radiocaesium transfer parameters are unavailable.

The Chernobyl accident: Can lichens be used to characterize a radiocesium contaminated range?
Many of the lichen species that are important in the lichen dominated plant communities in the Norwegian mountains are important reindeer winter forage. They are also organisms that collect fall-out from the atmosphere.
