A numerical model consisting of a 3D advection/diffusion equation, including uptake/release reactions between water and sediments described in a dynamic way, has been applied to simulate the marine releases of 90Sr from the Fukushima power plant after the March 2011 tsunami. This is a relevant issue since 90Sr releases are still occurring. The...

The impact of the earthquake and tsunami on theeast coast of Japan on 11 March 2011 caused a loss of powerat the Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear power plant (NPP) thatresulted in one of the most important releases of artificialradioactivity into the environment. Although several workswere devoted to evaluating the atmospheric...

Abstract Measurements of 129I carried out on sea ice samples collected in the central Arctic Ocean in 2007 revealed relatively high levels in the range of 100–1400 × 107 at L−1 that are comparable to levels measured in the surface mixed layer of the ocean at the same time. The 129I/127I ratio in sea ice is much greater than that in the...

La roca de fosfato se utiliza como fuente para la producción de suplementos alimenticios, como en forma de fosfato dicálcico (DCP), que es un suministro de calcio y fósforo para animales domésticos.

As part of the GEOTRACES Program, six laboratories participated in an intercalibration exercise on several anthropogenic radionuclides of interest. The effort was successful for 239,240Pu activity, 240Pu/239Pu isotope ratio, and 137Cs activity measured in filtered seawater samples from the Bermuda Atlantic Time Series station (BATS) and a site...
