Description
The estimates of plutonium concentration in soils of Western regions of Bryansk (Krasnogorsky, Novozybkovsky, Zlynkovsky and Klintsovsky) are presented. The levels of soil contamination with plutonium within the regions examined vary by 4-5 times, although no definite geographical direction of pollution intensity within the territory examined is noted. The cumulative concentration of isotopes (238Pu, 239Pu and 240Pu) varies within 21-112 Bg/kg
