Creator:: Krzyaniak, Nathan Anthony
Abstract:: The Fukushima Daiichi nuclear disaster of 2011 made it apparent that releases of fission products to marine environments is a very real possibility. Additional data on the movement of material through marine environments can be used by radioecology personnel to assist with both ecosystem protection as well as environmental cleanup...

Creator:: Bytwerk, David Paul
Abstract:: Greenhouse studies were conducted to determine interception, absorption, and translocation values for foliar applied ³⁶Cl. Foliar interception and uptake of contaminated irrigation water by crops is a major pathway for the transport of radionuclides to human beings in scenarios relevant to the waste disposal community. Performance assessments of many repositories...

Creator:: Whitlow, Jesse Lynn
Abstract:: After contamination of soil in Japan due to the Fukushima Daiichi accident, there has been an increased interest in remediation of radiologically contaminated land. This study investigated the efficacy of a new biological remediation technology developed by Earthfort, an Oregon based company to hold radionuclides at the soil surface. Cesium-134...

Creator:: Bentley, R. Blair
Abstract:: The Nevada Test Site (NTS) was the location for at least 100 above ground Nuclear Weapons tests during the 1950's and early 1960's. Radioactive fallout from these tests spread to many areas north and west of the NTS. According to estimates from the NCI and DOE, Washington County, Utah was...

Creator:: Myers, Margaret C.
Abstract:: The objective of this research was to estimate the radiological impact on various non-human biotas by the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear power plant radiation release resulting from Japan's tsunami in March 2011 consistent with the recent recommendations of the International Commission on Radiological Protection. Soil concentration data given by Japan's Ministry...
