Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, we conducted a survey of radioactive Cs contained in soil, sediment, vegetation, and lakes and rivers water in Natsui river basin. This study forcus on the runoff behavior, pollution level/scale and accumulation in soils/sediments by radioactive Cs-134 and Cs-137. By using the ratio of half-life on Cs-134 and Cs-137, it was evaluated quantitatively the source impact of nuclear accident. In addition, efforts to modeling to reproduce and forecasting the concentration of Cs, and predicted long-term changes in water contamination levels in the Kodama-dam lake and its inflow river. Results of the study, a relatively high Cs concentration was detected in the lake and pond sediments, that more than 90% that is the Fukushima nuclear power plant origin. It was found that the Cs concentration was estimated to a few Bq/L to about initially in the Lake of Kodama dam, reduction of up to about 0.1 Bq/L is expected in 20 years.
