Description

Natural and anthropogenic sources of radionuclides in the terrestrial environment. Importance of chemical speciation of radionuclides for their distribution in terrestrial ecosystems and their transfer in food chains. Influence of precipitation chemistry on the fate of airborne radionuclides in the terrestrial environment. Relative contributions of 137Cs and 239-240Pu from atmospheric nuclear weapons tests and the Chernobyl reactor accident as evident from field studies in Norway.
