Comparative study of the behaviour of radiocaesium and -strontium from different source terms in permanent pastures

  • 1. CEN/SCK, Radiation Protection, Boeretang 200, Mol (Belgium)

Description

The behaviour of caesium and strontium deposited by the Chernobyl fallout in the region of Mol (Belgium) has been investigated in permanent pastures established on sandy soils. Their distribution within the soil and the changes of their concentration in grass were followed up to February 90. Their transfer from grass to cow's milk was investigated under field and controlled conditions. The behaviour of these two Chernobyl radionuclides is compared with that of the same nuclides from other source terms. (author)
