Since Fukushima accident, dozens of field studies have been conducted in order to quantify
and understand the behaviour of atmospheric radiocesium (137 Cs) fallouts in contaminated …

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 …

To elucidate interannual changes in the vertical distribution of 137 Cs in forest ecosystems
contaminated by the Fukushima Dai-ichi Nuclear Power Plant accident, we investigated 137 …

Feedback experiences from Fukushima and Chernobyl situations have clearly shown the
importance of involving local stakeholders living in contaminated territories for the …

The aggregated transfer factor (Tag) is commonly used to represent the actual transfer of
radiocesium from soil to wild edible plants, but the values have shown substantial variation …

Due to its longevity, radioisotope 129 I is a health concern following potential releases in the
environment which raises questions about residence and exposure times relevant for risk …

In forest ecosystems, forest litter is considered an active medium for radiocesium (137 Cs).
To understand discharge mechanisms of highly bioavailable dissolved 137 Cs from forests …

Forest water conservation function is an important part of forest ecosystem services. The
discontinuous distribution of forests in semiarid areas brings difficulties to the quantitative …

Measurements in forest catchments in Fukushima Prefecture indicate that cesium‐137
(137Cs) leaching from forest litter affects dissolved 137Cs levels in river water. Existing …

We examined spatial variation in vertical 137 Cs flux from the litter layer using lysimeters
combined with copper-substituted Prussian blue in two forests (deciduous broad-leaved and …
