Radiocaesium Activity in Forest Soil of the Opole Anomaly Area (Polish-Czech Border Region)

摘要

The problem of radioactive contamination of soils within the area of the Opole Anomaly (Polish-Czech region border) was considered. The modes of radiocaesium (~(137)Cs) accumulation in fungi, lichen, and plants were analyzed and their application as bioindicators for this isotope was discussed. The results were correlated to the physiochemical properties of soils. Moreover, a computer estimation of the parameters describing the translocation of ~(137)Cs in soil was conducted and their influence on the course of the process was determined.
