Investigations on {sup 137}Cs and {sup 90}Sr soil-to-plant transfer from soils contaminated by Chernobyl fallout; Ermittlung praxisbezogener Transferfaktoren fuer {sup 137}Cs und {sup 90}Sr aus dem Fallout des Reaktorunfalles in Tschernobyl

Abstract

Radiological models use transfer factors to describe the movement of radionuclides in ecosystems. One of the most important factors is the soil-to-plant transfer value: TF = (Bq/kg plant-fresh weight)/(Bq/kg soil-dry weight). In the present paper results from four Austrian countries (Upper Austria, Lower Austria, Burgenland and Styria) for {sup 137}Cs and {sup 90}Sr are shown. The highest mean {sup 137}Cs-transfer values were obtained for straw of cereals. In most cases {sup 90}Sr-transfer was one order of magnitude higher than the {sup 137}Cs-transfer. {sup 90}Sr showed a significantly lower mobility in the investigated plants as compared to {sup 137}Cs. (Authors, shortened by Quittner) Also appeared in the proceedings of the 102{sup nd} congress of the German society for agricultural research institutions 1990 in Berlin.
