Description

The general goal in this project is to obtain overview on 210Po and 210Pb behaviour and mobility in forest environment. In this study binding and mobility of 210Po and 210Pb in soil was studied, as well as transfer of polonium and lead from soil to plants. Contribution of surface fallout in plants was discussed. (LN)
