Radioactive pollution in Athens, Greece due to the Fukushima nuclear accident.
As a result of the nuclear accident in Fukushima Dai-ichi power plant, which started on March 11, 2011, radioactive pollutants were transferred by air masses to various regions of the Northern hemisphere, including Europe. Very low concentrations of (131)I, (137)Cs and (134)Cs in airborne particulate matter were measured in Athens, Greece during the period of March 24 to April 28, 2011. The max...
متن کاملFukushima daiichi nuclear accident and radiation exposure.
We consider that the Great East Japan Earthquake was a combined disaster involving earthquake and tsunami as well as the release of radioactive materials into the environment (Fig. 1). Something I would like you to notice here is that among various disasters, a radiation nuclear disaster cannot be seen; it cannot be felt; in fact it cannot be detected without special devices. Because of that, t...
متن کاملResearch with radiation and radioisotopes to better understand plant physiology and agricultural consequences of radioactive contamination from the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear accident
Research carried out by me and my group over the last almost four decades are summarized here. The main emphasis of my work was and continues to be on plant physiology using radiation and radioisotopes. Plants live on water and inorganic elements. In the case of water, we developed neutron imaging methods and produced 15O-labeled water (half-life 2 min) and applied them to understand water circ...
متن کاملCurrent Situation and Challenges at Fukushima: Hands-on Measurements of Radiation Contamination after Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant Accident
An oceanographic investigation within 1.0km radius of Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant (FDNPP) was carried out in September 2013, independent of the Government of Japan. Samples of seawater and seafloor sand were collected near the sewage outlets and in front of the harbor at the FDNPP. The level of seawater radioactivity did not show evidence of immediate harm to the health of the people....
متن کاملRadiation Dose Reduction Efficiency of Buildings after the Accident at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station
Numerous radionuclides were released from the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station (F1-NPS) in Japan following the magnitude 9.0 earthquake and tsunami on March 11, 2011. Local residents have been eager to calculate their individual radiation exposure. Thus, absorbed dose rates in the indoor and outdoor air at evacuation sites in the Fukushima Prefecture were measured using a gamma-ray measu...
