Description

The main objective of the paper is to estimate the absorbed dose rate in three different environmental scenarios considering the terrestrial biota and aquatic biota (freshwater and marine) using the ERICA Tool version 1.3.1.33 and RESRAD-BIOTA code version 1.8. The three environmental scenarios used in the dose rate estimation were: First environmental scenario – NORM: Nisti et al. determined the activity concentrations of natural radionuclides in typical Brazilian soils, phosphogypsum (PG) and soils amended with PG; Second environmental scenario – Soil: Nisti et al. determined the activity concentrations of radionuclides in soil around IPEN facilities; and Third environmental scenario – Sediment: Saueia et al. determined the activity concentrations of radionuclides in the sediment of the Baixada Santista, an estuarine system complex in southeastern Brazil.
