Study of the land to sea transport of transuranic elements. Application to the Palomares Accident (Almeria 1966); Estudio del transporte tierra-mar de elementos transuranidos. Aplicacion al accidente de Palomares (Almeria 1966)

Abstract

The work presents a study on the land to sea transport of transuranic elements applied to a precise scenery at southern coast of Spain: the Palomares ecosystem, where in 1966 an accidental release of transuranics ocurred (an USAF b-52 carrying four thermonuclear bombs). The study has been focused on the depositional history recorded in sediments from different sea depths. The experimental basis has been the measurement of Pu, Am, radicaesium, and natural radionuclides in marine sediments from the referred zone, that involved the setting up of high sensitivity alpha and gamma spectrometry systems; the chronology of sediment was established by applying the CRS model to unsupported Pb-210 profiles.
