Atmospheric transport and radioactive contamination of the atmosphere and of the ground
Creators
Description
The basic contamination source as a result of the accident at the Chernobyl Atomic Power Plant was the radioactive cloud and the gas stream. Based on the analyses of atmospheric aerosol samples collected in the immediate vicinity of the reactor an enrichment in iodine and cesium radionuclides was found. The meteorological conditions which governed the dispersion of air masses in the area around the Station determined the basic zone of close-in radioactive fallout to the north-west and the north-east of the Station. The distribution of radiation levels on the ground, the change in the concentrations of source radionuclides, data concerning the radioactive contamination of rivers and water reservoirs and values for the plutonium contamination of soil and grass are presented in tables, graphs and maps
