Abstract:

Abstract. The 2011 Tohoku earthquake caused radionuclide 137Cs be directly released into the ocean from the Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear power plants. A high-resolution global-coastal nesting ocean model was established to simulate the initial spread of 137Cs as conservative tracer over the shelf of Japan after the accident. The major advantage in the current model system is to use unstructured grids to resolve the power plant and the coastal geometry with a grid resolution much higher than that used in previous modeling experiments. Therefore, it gives us an opportunity to examine the necessity

Abstract:

ABSTRACTSurface contamination by bomb‐derived and Chernobyl‐derived 137Cs has been subject to changes due to physical decay and lateral transport of contaminated soil particles, which have resulted in an ongoing transfer of radionuclides from terrestrial ecosystems to surface water, river bed sediments, and flood plains. Knowledge of the different sources of spatial variation of 137Cs is particularly essential for estimating 137Cs transfer to fluvial systems and for successfully applying 137Cs as an environmental tracer in soil erosion studies.

Abstract:

This paper introduces the distribution background and unique characteristics of 137Cs in cultivated and undisturbed areas. The samples were taken from three measuring points of the depth of 1 m. We examined all visible horizons and determined their classifications. There were four horizons in one profile. All four horizons had a different zone thickness. 137Cs is an artificial radionuclide that has been produced primarily as a result of atmospheric thermonuclear weapon tests since the 1950. Also, the great amount of 137Cs (~85 PBq) was released in the atmosphere during the Chernobyl accident.

Abstract:

Abstract. The classical approach of using 137Cs as a soil erosion tracer is based on the comparison between stable reference sites and sites affected by soil redistribution processes; it enables the derivation of soil erosion and deposition rates. The method is associated with potentially large sources of uncertainty with major parts of this uncertainty being associated with the selection of the reference sites. We propose a decision support tool to Check the Suitability of reference Sites (CheSS). Commonly, the variation among 137Cs inventories of spatial replicate reference samples is taken

Abstract:

Tillage erosion, the net downslope translocation of soil by tillage, was measured on eight shoulder slope landscape positions within two fields in the upland regions of south–western Ontario. Translocation of soil by tillage was measured by labelling plots of soil with 137Cs and measuring its displacement in response to tillage. Paired plots were utilized to compare soil translocation by upslope and downslope tillage. A single sequence of conventional tillage operations, consisting of mouldboard plough, tandem disc (double pass) and C-tine cultivator, translocated 90 kg soil m−1 slope width wh

We compared consumption rates of yellow perch (Perca flavescens) obtained from surveys of complete digestive tract contents (CDTC) with two radioisotope approaches using 137Cs as a biological tracer. We sampled fish of age 1+, 2+, and 3+ from three lakes for a total of six lake - age-class combinations. The two radioisotope methods provided very similar estimates of consumption rates. The relative differences between the CDTC approach and the radioisotope approaches ranged from 67 to 128% when the sampling interval length was 28-35 days. At the time scale of 70 days, the relative differences b

Abstract. Past nuclear weapons testing (NWT) and nuclear power plant (NPP) accidents have resulted in the ubiquitous deposition of radionuclides in the environment. These fallout radionuclides (FRNs) are considered the privileged markers (“golden spikes”) of the Anthropocene stratigraphic layers. Their deposition in the 1950s coincided with the “Great Acceleration”, which is characterized by large-scale shifts in the Earth's systems, including increased land-use change and soil degradation. Among the FRNs deposited globally, 137Cs has been the most commonly used to assess soil erosion and/or t

Abstract:

This paper is dealing with soil erosion assessment using two different approaches: nuclear model and erosion potential method, also known as Gavrilovic's method. Complex valley systems on Titel Loess Plateau were selected for investigation. Radiocaesium is favored in many studies as an optimal erosion tracer due to its relatively long half-life, negligible renewal in the environment and strongly binding ability onto soil particles. The use of gamma-spectrometry in environmental testing laboratories acts as a precise and fast measurement technique for determination of 137Cs activity concentrati

Abstract:

PLANTS COVERING INFLUENCE TO THE RADIOISOTOPES EXISTENCE OF 137Cs and 210Pbex IN THE SOIL. Cs-137 and Pbex-210 of environmental radioisotope content in the soil can be useful to estimate the rate of erosion/deposition in an area, by comparing the inventory value of Cs-137 or Pbex-210 in observed site with those in a stable reference site. Cs-137 and Pbex-210 stick very strongly at the surface of the soil (clay), so it can use as a tracer for the movement of soil. Plants very influence the existence of Cs-137 and Pbex-210 environmental radioisotopes as a cover. If without a plant cover, then th
