Outline of Final Research Achievements |
A model of radioactive cesium dynamics in Zoysia japonica Steud. dominated grazing grassland was developed to predict radioactive cesium concentration of grass and grazing cattle. Four breeding cows were grazed in 1.5 hectare pasture. 137Cs concentration in vegetation, litter, feces and urine was measured once a month from May to October. Cows were slaughtered after grazing and 137Cs concentration in beef was measured. Simulated results of yearly changes of 137Cs concentration in vegetation, beef, feces and urine agreed with observed results. This indicates that the model may be applied to prediction of 137Cs effects for following few decades. On the other hand, simulated results of seasonal changes did not necessarily agree with observed results. Seasonal changes of plant growth rate, nutrient uptake from root and decomposition of litter and feces affect seasonal dynamics of 137Cs concentrations.
