Sorption of Tracer Amounts of Strontium and Cesium in Soils; SORBTSIYA MIKROKOLICHESTV STRONTSIYA I TSEZIYA V POCHVAKH
- Klechkovsky
The results of radioisotopic experiments on the processes of adsorption by soils of tracer amounts of strontium and cesium are presented. Data are given on the intensity of adsorption and on the desorption of tracer cause the sorptive properties of soils are an important factor which determines the mobility of these elements and their capacity of translocating in the soils and of being assimilated by plants. A comparison is made between the role played by calcium of the soil as a nonisotopic carrier'' of radioactive strontium and the role played by potassium as a non-isotopic carrier'' of radioactive cesium in the sorption process in the soils. On the basis of investigation some figures are cited which characterize specific features of the behavior of tracer amounts of strontium and cesium in different soils. (auth)
