Experimental Studies on the Dynamics of Radionuclide Transport in Soils and Plants: An Investigation of the Effects of Soil Type and Chemical Form. Appendix A, B, and C

摘要

The main report (ANS 364) describes a greenhouse study on the distribution of added radioisotopes within pots containing soils and plants. The soils were sampled from two UK nuclear energy sites: (a) close to the CEGB installation at Sizewell, Suffolk; and (b) inside the perimeter of the BNFL establishment at Sellafield, Cumbria. Information on these soils is given in Appendices A and B. The time dependent behaviour of the radioisotopes has been investigated using I-125 and I-131 and by means of four harvests after administration of the radioisotopes. Relevant data are contained in Appendix C. Data for the watering of the pots, and temperature and humidity of the greenhouses, are given in Appendix D. (Atomindex citation 17:018895)
