A radionuclide study of the Clyde Sea area
Description
This thesis presents the sampling and analytical procedures developed and the results obtained in a survey of the concentrations of 134Cs, 137Cs, 226Ra and 228Ra in the waters and sediments of the northern section of the Clyde Sea Area. The suitability of these nuclides as tracers of coastal marine processes is discussed and the results are applied to the estimation of water residence times and mixing rates and to the patterns of sedimentation in the area.
