To understand the changes in radiocesium (137 Cs) concentrations in stem woods after the
Fukushima Dai-ichi Nuclear Power Plant (FDNPP) accident, we investigated 137 Cs …

Downward migration of 137Cs in soils was studied in three mixed deciduous forests ca 40
km northwest of the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear power plant (FDNPP), Japan. We selected …

Incorporation of radiocesium by plants via root uptake appears to be affected by some of the
exchangeable cations in the soil and/or pH of the soil. However, few studies have examined …

Abstract Radiocesium (137 Cs) activity concentrations, mainly derived from the Fukushima
accident of March 2011, were measured in green foliar parts without separation by age (bulk …

The spatial variation of the radiocesium inventory in forest soil was studied ca 44 km
northwest of the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant, Japan. This study focuses on the …

Abstract Information about radioactive cesium (137 Cs) distribution on lands with different
uses is necessary for future decontamination works. This study investigated the degree of …

The effects of 137 Cs deposit forms on its ageing in soil have not yet been reported. Soluble
and Solid 137 Cs input forms were mixed with the mineral soils collected under Fukushima's …

Japanese forests were exposed to multiple sources of radioactive contamination. To acquire
scientific guidance on forest management planning, it is crucial to understand the long-term …

The Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear power plant accident in Japan, triggered by a big
earthquake and the resulting tsunami on 11 March 2011, caused a substantial release of …

Several years after the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant accident, the surface mineral
soil layer is believed to be the main reservoir of radiocesium (137 Cs) in forest ecosystems …
