Description

The results of a long-term study (from 2002 to 2008) on the concentrations of natural (7Be, 210Pb, 40K) and fission (137Cs) radionuclides in leaves of higher plants (linden and chestnut) in an urban area (city of Belgrade) are presented. The activity of the radionuclides was determined on an HPGe detector by standard gamma spectrometry. The study is a part of the ongoing air quality monitoring programme in urban areas in the Republic of Serbia. (author)

Abstract (Serbian)

U radu su prikazani rezultati visegodisnjih istrazivanja sadrzaja prirodnih (7Be, 210Pb, 40K) i proizvedenih (137Cs) radionuklida u liscu visih biljaka (lipa, kesten) u gradskom podrucju Beograda u periodu od 2002. do 2008. godine. Aktivnost radionuklida odredjena je na HPGe detektoru standardnom metodom spektrometrije gama zracenja. Istrazivanja su deo tekuceg projekta ispitivanja kvaliteta vazduha u urbanim sredinama na teritoriji Republike Srbije.
