Description
The present report describes the amount of incorporated 134 and 137 cesium in the muscle tissue of 330 roe deer, which were referred for routine necropsy between 1986 and 1988. The amount of incorporated radiocesium was markedly decreased in 1987 and 1988 compared with 1986. However, a seasonal fluctuation with increase of the measured incorporated radioactivity during the autumn months was observed in 1987 and 1988. (orig.)
Abstract (German)
Die Muskulatur von 330 Rehen, die in den Jahren 1986 bis 1988 zur Sektion kamen, wurde auf Caesium 137 und 134 untersucht. Gegenueber 1986 wurde in den beiden darauffolgenden Jahren eine insgesamt abnehmende Belastung mit Radiocaesium gefunden. Jeweils in den Herbstmonaten der Jahre 1987 und 1988 war ein zeitlich begrenzter Anstieg der Kontamination mit Radiocaesium messbar. (orig.)Additional details
