Terrestrial invertebrate population studies in the Chernobyl exclusion zone, Ukraine
The Chernobyl reactor accident in April 1986 released some 3-6.10 TBq Cs and 2-4.10 TBq Sr to atmosphere. About half of this was deposited within 20 km of the site, leading to extensive death of trees and other biota, and the establishment of a human exclusion zone. High levels of contamination remain in this zone. Nonetheless, birch (Betula spp.) and willow (Salix spp.) have recolonised the fo...

متن کاملRadionuclides in the Chernobyl Exclusion Zone
The accident of the Chernobyl nuclear power plant (ChNPP) in 1986 was probably the worst environmental disaster in the past 30 years. The fallout and accumulation of radionuclides in the soil and vegetation could have long-term impacts on the environment. Radionuclides released during large, catastrophic vegetation fires could spread to continental Europe, Scandinavia, and Russia. The potential...
متن کاملMolecular detection of Bartonella species infecting rodents in Slovenia.
Rodents, collected in three zoogeographical regions across Slovenia, were tested for the presence of bartonellae using direct PCR-based amplification of 16S/23S rRNA gene intergenic spacer region (ITS) fragments from splenic DNA extracts. Bartonella DNA was detected in four species of rodents, Apodemus flavicollis, Apodemus sylvaticus, Apodemus agrarius and Clethrionomys glareolus, in all three...
متن کاملLegacy: inside the Chernobyl exclusion zone.
The images shown here 1 explore inside the 30 km exclusion zone surrounding the Chernobyl Power Plant. Evacuated with 24 hours notice after the 1986 melt down of one of its three nuclear reactors, the zone now stands as a symbol of the dangers inherent within the nuclear process. Empty villages strewn with the reminders of their former populations are scattered throughout the zone and at its ce...
