Vertical distribution of natural radionuclides in soils

Determination of radiological map of radionuclides distribution in soils ‎around of Shazand oil power plant

In this study, 34 soil samples were collected from the east of the Shazand power plant to the  Arak city, with a length of 25 km. The specific activities of radionuclides of 226Ra, 232Th, 40K, and 137Cs were determined using gamma-ray spectrometry method. Gamma-ray spectra registered to employ high purity germanium (HPGe) detector with 30% relative efficiency. Specific activities of correspondi...

Vertical distribution of phosphorus in agricultural drainage ditch soils.

Pedological processes such as gleization and organic matter accumulation may affect the vertical distribution of P within agricultural drainage ditch soils. The objective of this study was to assess the vertical distribution of P as a function of horizonation in ditch soils at the University of Maryland Eastern Shore Research Farm in Princess Anne, Maryland. Twenty-one profiles were sampled fro...

Distribution of fallout radionuclides (7Be, 137Cs, 210Pb and 239,240Pu) in soils of Taiwan.

Depth profiles and cumulative deposition of four fallout radionuclides (7Be, 137Cs, 210Pb and 239,240Pu) were determined in presumably undisturbed soils in Taiwan. Inventories of these radionuclides in different areas correlate significantly with each other (except 7Be) and with mean annual rainfall, providing a necessary condition for the development of soil erosion studies in Taiwan. However,...
