Abstrakt: We investigated cesium-137 (137Cs) transfer to Japanese mustard spinaches (spinach) due to resuspended particles across the multiple sites in Fukushima Prefecture, Japan. At a site located in difficult-to-return zone, 137Cs deposition in pots placed near the ground increased. However, there was no significant difference in the amount of 137Cs in spinach placed near the ground and those placed far from the ground. 137Cs adsorption to the spinach was less than 10% of the 137Cs deposition at each study site. For future study, it is necessary to evaluate the effects of weather and growth conditions on 137Cs absorption to the spinach. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
