Description
The source term for radioactive contamination of the Doamnei-Arges river - reservoir system is more than 90% composed by 58 Co and 60 Co from TRIGA reactors cooling system. Measurable amounts of 137 Cs from Chernobyl accident fallout (1986) is coming into the system from atmosphere (resuspension) and from the catchment area (soil erosion). In this paper, a quantitative analysis of the three contamination pathways is performed. (authors)
