Abstract: | The vertical distribution of 137Cs, 90Sr, 239,240Pu, 238Pu and 241Am was determined in soil samples collected from the Chernobyl exclusion zone in 1994. The results show very close distribution profiles for all radionuclides, with about 90% of the total activity of each nuclide lying between the surface and the fourth centimeter. Sequential extraction methods were used to determine the association of radionuclides in soil. The data on vertical distribution of radionuclide species were used to calculate their vertical migration parameters. |
