cesium 137 migration

Migration of Cesium‐137 in typical soils of North Germany ...

The Podzol presented a high migration with marked Cs-137 losses in the top soil. The Gleysol showed the lowest migration down to 10 cm depth. A nearly similar pattern at the top was found within the Histosol, however, a ratio of 10% Cs-137 in the 10–15 cm section indicated a deeper migration.

Continuous nitrogen fertilization retards the vertical ...

Application of a cesium bromide (133 CsBr) tracer suggested that the retarded vertical migration of 137 Cs in the N plot may be related to significantly lower amounts of exchangeable 133 Cs and significantly higher proportions of non-exchangeable 133 Cs in the upper 2 cm.

1993-10-1  The vertical migration of 90 Sr and 117 Cs produced by the explosion of the atomic bomb in 1945 was investigated in an unsaturated soil layer in the Nishiyama area of Nagasaki. The in situ migration rates of 90 Sr and 137 Cs were estimated to be 4.2 mm yr −1 and 1.0 mm yr −1, respectively, when the rate of movement of soil water was 2500 mm yr −1.The in situ K d values of 90 Sr and 137 ...
