The fate of radiocesium (137 Cs) derived from the Fukushima nuclear accident and
associated radiation risks are largely dependent on its migration and retention behavior in …

Abstract After the Fukushima Dai-ichi Nuclear Power Plant accident on March 2011, several
studies showed that the downward migration of 137 Cs from litter to mineral soil is more …

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 …

Abstract Cesium-137 (137 Cs) migration in the litter layer consists of various processes,
such as input via throughfall, output via litter decomposition, and input from deeper layers …

The accident at the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant caused serious radiocesium
(137Cs) contamination of forest ecosystems located in mountainous and hilly regions with …

Abstract Because of the Fukushima Dai-ichi Nuclear Power Plant accident, forest
ecosystems in wide areas were contaminated with 137 Cs. It is important to characterize the …

This study investigated the temporal change in vertical distributions of radiocesium
inventories in Japanese forest soils during the early phase (from 2011 to 2017) following the …

This study deals with the description of the vertical distribution of radiocaesium (137 Cs and
134 Cs) in a representative coniferous forest soil, investigated 10 months after the …

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 …

Understanding the fate of the vertical distribution of radiocesium (137 Cs) in Japanese forest
soils is key to assessing the radioecological consequences of the Fukushima Daiichi …
