Natural attenuation of Fukushima-derived radiocesium in soils due to its vertical and lateral migration [PDF]
Processes of vertical and lateral migration lead to gradual reduction in contamination of catchment soil, particularly its top layer. The reduction can be considered as natural attenuation.

Study of the 2H(3He, p0)4He nuclear reaction for deuterium depth profiling
The differential cross sections of the 2H(3He, p0)4He reaction have been determined at six detection angles (120°, 130°, 140°, 150°, 160° and 170°) in the energy range between 300 and 4000 keV, with steps of 30 to 100 keV.

Fate of Some Common Radionuclides Found in Dardanelle Lake [PDF]
Four factors influence the concentrations of radionuclides in Dardanelle Lake water: injections due to fallout and discharge from Nuclear I coupled with losses due to decay, to dilution and to sedimentation.

Transport of Sellafield-derived C-14 from the Irish Sea through the North Channel [PDF]
Since the early 1950s, the Sellafield nuclear fuel reprocessing plant in Northwest England has released radio-carbon into the Irish Sea in a mainly inorganic form as part of its authorized liquid effluent discharge.
