Some NORM materials require radiation control and regulation. The activity concentrations of the radionuclides in rocks and soil found in the nature are generally low. Certain minerals, including some ...

More than 20 years later, researchers from Case Western Reserve University traveled to Sweden and Poland to gain insight into the downward migration of Chernobyl-derived radionuclides in the soil.

Contamination with oily wastes containing natural radionuclides is a potential hazard for soil health and function. Knowledge about the effects of compound mixtures containing stimulating and ...

"Our mandate is to observe the dynamics of radionuclides in soil, water and fauna, as well as survey changes in the population of animals and plants, including rare species," says Bondar. Belarus ...

Oily waste containing natural radionuclides: does it cause stimulation or inhibition of soil bacterial community? Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science , 2015; DOI: 10.1002/jpln.201400641 ...

It ensures Boeing will clean up radionuclides in soil to levels that would have existed without industrial activity, cleanup of chemical contamination to restore areas to the standard of "resident ...

One of the institute’s most important early tasks was to estimate the concentrations of radionuclides in the soil throughout the exclusion zone. In the conference room, Yoschenko pointed to two ...

An international effort aims to assess the environmental impact of nuclear waste dumped in the ocean over half a century ago.

Radionuclides from nuclear activities have spread widely and stick around in ecosystems for a long time. In the US alone, up to 80 million cubic metres of soil and 4.7 billion cubic metres of ...

"We have created a new map to provide a basis for estimating the soil loss since the anthropogenic release of radionuclides," first study author Katrin Meusburger, researcher with the group ...
