Accurate determination of the massic activity of gamma-emitting radionuclides in environmental samples, particularly sediments and soils, cannot be achieved without taking into account sample self-absorption. The extent of self-absorption in the samp

An assessment of the distribution of Chernobyl fallout in a Swedish forest was carried out and showed more than 95% of the 137 Cs in the system to be of Chernobyl origin. The data show that approximately 87% of total fallout is found in soils, 6% in

Data on the concentration of 137 Cs in animal fodder from collective farms in Russia on which no countermeasures were applied following the Chemobyl accident have been evaluated for the period 1987 to 1994. The aggregated transfer factor (Bq.kg -1 pe

Replicate samples of soil, Juncus squarrosus and Calluna vulgaris were taken within a grid system on an organic peatland soil site in Ireland. A similar sampling survey was carried out on an organic rich forest soil site in Sweden, where Vaccinium my

In light of the recent recommendations from the International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP) for controlling exposure to radon, a survey of national policies to address the radon issue in both dwellings and workplaces was carried out. D

The level of 137Cs and soil contaminating three winter fodders was determined on organic and mineral soil and the effect of harvesting, fodder storage and weather conditions on the contamination level was assessed. The mean level of soil contaminatio

137Cs and 40K were analyzed in pasture grass and soils throughout a 12-month period. The titanium content of the samples was determined as a marker of soil contamination of the grass samples. The 137Cs activity concentration in the grass was closely

The use of faecal samples taken from sheep flocks as a means of predicting radiocaesium concentrations in live animals was studied. Radiocaesium levels in 1726 sheep from 29 flocks were measured using in vivo techniques and a single faecal sample tak

The vegetation composition of the diet of mountain sheep was determined by faecal fragment analysis. A comparison of diet composition with the vegetation available for grazing revealed selection by sheep of grasses, in preference to the more abundant

Vegetation and soil samples from three upland areas in the Republic of Ireland were collected and analysed for radiocaesium. The data were used to investigate temporal trends in vegetation and to examine the relationships among radiocaesium concentra
