Possible role of organic matter in radiocaesium adsorption in soils [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
The aim of this review is to examine the hypothesis that organic matter decreases the adsorption of radiocaesium on clay minerals. The factors that determine radiocaesium mobility and bioavailability in soil are briefly outlined to show why a ...

Radiocesium and 40K distribution of river sediments and floodplain deposits in the Fukushima exclusion zone

open access: yes, 2018
In this study, radiocesium and 40K analysis were accomplished for samples of riverbed sediments and floodplain deposits collected from five rivers in the vicinity (< 20 km) of the damaged Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant after seven years of the ...

Deposition of Radiocesium to the Soil by Stemflow, Throughfall and Leaffall from Beeches.

open access: yes, 1993
The amount of Chernobyl-derived137Cs transferred to the soil by stemflow, throughfall (precipitation under the tree crown), and leaffall from three beeches was investigated as a function of time in the growing seasons of 1991 and 1992.

Vertical variation in the transport and fate of radiocesium through the canopy via branchflow and stemflow

open access: yes, 2019
This study seeks to better understand the vertical variation in the transport and fate of radiocesium via branchflow and stemflow in the aftermath of the Fukushima nuclear power plant accident.

Distribution of radiocesium in grape vine plants after foliar contamination: Effect of potassium supply on the release from the roots

open access: yes, 1999
The foliar uptake of radioactive cesium (Cs-134) by selected leaves of grape vine plants and the subsequent redistribution within the plants was examined under controlled conditions in a greenhouse. The radionuclide was applied as chloride.

Five-minute resolved spatial distribution of radiocesium in sea sediment derived from the Fukushima Dai-ichi Nuclear Power Plant

open access: yes, 2014
The spatial distributions of radiocesium concentration in sea sediment to a core depth of 14 cm were investigated in the offshore region from the Fukushima Prefecture to the northern part of the Ibaraki Prefecture in February and July 2012, at a spatial ...

Modelling of radiocesium in lakes - Lake sensitivity and remedial strategies

open access: yes, 1996
A given fallout of radiocesium (e.g. after the Chernobyl accident) will be distributed and taken by biota very differently in various types of lakes. Thus, lakes have different ''sensitivities'' to radiocesium.

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

Radiocesium transfer from hillslopes to the Pacific Ocean after the Fukushima Nuclear Power Plant accident: A review

open access: yes, 2015
International audienceThe devastating tsunami triggered by the Great East Japan Earthquake on March 11, 2011 inundated the Fukushima Dai-ichi Nuclear Power Plant (FDNPP) resulting in a loss of cooling and a series of explosions releasing the largest ...
