Description

This research shows the results ol the natural radioactivity level in west lake. In 2016, selecting the distribution location of the West lake and surrounding water system, then sampling, measuring and analyzing the activity concentration of the alpha, beta, 90Sr, 137Cs, 226Ra, Th, U in water, and compared with 2012-2015 average statistics. The results show that the natural radioactivity level and the fluctuation ol radionuclides in West lake are always within the range of the national water quality requirements. (authors)
