The occurrence of 137 Cs in size fractionated samples in river water from the Abukuma
River system,(the Kuchibuto and Abukuma Rivers, five sampling events for three sites) was …

We present a new compact instrument designed for scanning transmission X-ray
microscopy. It has piezo-driven linear stages, making it small and light. Optical components …

Purpose The aims of this research were to assess the sources of variability of particulate
FRNs (7Be, 210Pbex and 137Cs) in river channels, the influence of sediment properties …

Despite the presence of minerals that allow Cs fixation in soils, 137 Cs remains available to
crops for several years after its deposition, particularly in pasture soils. Larger amounts of …

To evaluate the influences of cyanobacterial extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) on
CaCO 3 precipitation, calcification experiments were conducted for 48 h (initial values of …

Adsorption of radiocesium (RCs) on particulate matters in aquatic environment is important
to understand its mobility and bioavailability. We here focused on factors controlling partition …

The temperature and oxygen environment play important roles in the desorption of 137 Cs
from freshwater lake sediment to lake water. In this study, 12 quarterly surveys were …

The role of particulate organic matter in radiocesium transfers from soils to rivers was
investigated in areas contaminated by the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant accident …

Although environmental changes and evolution of life are potentially recorded via microbial
carbonates, including laminated stromatolites and clotted thrombolites, factors controlling …

This study aimed to apply an adsorption-based technique to directly suppress harmful algal
blooms (HABs) in freshwater without causing secondary pollution. Considering the negative …
