Biological cycles of the Chernobyl originated cesium-137 (137 Cs, radiocesium) and the
natural potassium (K) in oak, birch, and pine forest, and wheat cropland in Russian …

The “Chernobyl nuclear disaster” released huge amounts of radionuclides, which are still
detectable in plants and sediments today. Bryophytes (mosses) are primitive land plants …

The predictions of three models of 137Cs transfer in forest ecosystems (FOA, LOGNAT and
FORESTLAND) were compared. The scenario for the model–model comparison consisted of …

In the most highly contaminated region of the Chernobyl Exclusion Zone, the “Red Forest”
site, the accumulation of the major dose-affecting radionuclides (90 Sr and 137 Cs) within …

Data comprise plot details and radionuclide activity concentrations for Sr-90, Cs-137, Am-
241, Pu-238, Pu-239 and Pu-240 in 'grassy'vegetation and soil. These radionuclide activity …

Long-term observations on the effects of a fertilization treatment on 137Cs concentrations in
forest vegetation are scarce. Needles of Scots pine were used as biological indicators of …

Forests are a critical source of internal exposure to radiation pollution in the form of forest
food (mushrooms and berries). Forests are more heavily polluted than open agricultural …

Abstract Knowledge of the background activity concentrations of anthropogenic
radionuclides before the start of operation of the new nuclear power plant in Belarus …

On the Stabatishke site near to Ignalina Nuclear Power Plant a near surface repository for
low and intermediate-level short-lived radioactive waste is being constructed to store the …

Foliar absorption of resuspended 90Sr, root uptake and contamination adhering to leaf
surfaces (ie soil loading) were compared at two Chernobyl-contaminated sites …
