Fukushima event reconstruction using modelling and isotope relationships

Using particulate and noble gas raw data analysed from Comprehensive Nuclear Test-Ban-Treaty (CTBT) monitoring sites, Canadian National Surveillance networks and atmospheric transport modelling, it is possible to associate some of the main events in the Fukushima accident timeline with observations, and perturbations in isotopic ratios in Japan, through the Pacific and into North America. Additional sources identified during the accident period will be commented upon in the context of CTBT treaty verification. (author)
