Monitoring system CTBTO and its role after Fukushima Nuclear Power Plant accident

  • 1. Statni urad pro jadernou bezpecnost, Praha (Czech Republic)

Description

After the accident in Fukushima nuclear power plant, which crashed due to earthquakes and mainly due to the earthquake caused by a huge tsunami, it was obvious that the air came mainly from fission products of spent fuel pool, and probably also from the reactors. The most complete information about distribution of radionuclides in the air monitoring network provided the CTBTO (Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty Organization) of its so-called radionuclide monitoring stations of aerosols and radioactive noble gases. After Fukushima NPP crash data from the CTBTO radionuclide stations were released, so it was possible to observe how the air contamination spreaded to northern hemisphere.
