Description
The biota dose calculation code NHDC (Non-Human Dose Calculation) was developed at STUK - Radiation and Nuclear Safety Authority. Perch (Perca fluviatilis) from southern parts of Lake Paeijaenne, contaminated by 137Cs from the Chernobyl deposition, was the object of this study. Dose rates from 137Cs to perch were estimated and annual doses of a hypothetic perch were calculated with NHDC using the measured 137Cs activity concentrations in perch in 1986-2001. (author)
