Spatial Variability and Cesium-137 Inventories in Native Forest
With the nuclear fission discovery and development of nuclear weapons in 1940s, artificial radioisotopes were introduced in the environment. This contamination is due to worldwide fallout by superficial nuclear tests realized from early 1950s to late 1970s by USA, former URSS, UK, France and China. One of theses radioisotopes that have been very studied is cesium-137. Cesium-137 has a half-life...
متن کامل01.09 Radioactivity in Soils (Cesium-134 and Cesium-137) (Edition 1992)
The reactor accident at Chernobyl on 26 April 1986 dramatically demonstrated the dangers involved in man-made radioactivity. The Chernobyl catastrophe was incomparably larger than the reactor accident in Harrisburg, USA in 1979. Chernobyl released enormous amounts of radioactive substances.

متن کاملPotassium-40 and Cesium-137 in the Surface Layers of Arable Soils and Food Supplies
The concentrations of Cs and potassium in the surface layers of arable soils were analyzed in the selected region of Eastern Poland approximately 20 years after the Chernobyl power plant accident. Additionally, the occurrence of the elements in soil in the forms available for plants was determined. In relation to the total concentrations of Cs and K in the soil, cesium is found in larger quanti...
