Effects of Chernobyl on Mittelfranken. An evaluation of Erlangen and the surrounding regions. Auswirkungen von 'Tschernobyl' auf Mittelfranken. Bewertung am Beispiel Erlangen und Umgebung

Abstract

According to an analysis of radioactivity in the atmosphere, ground, plants and meat Mittelfranken values are as follows: 1) The dispersion of ground pollution values by far exceeds that of other regions in Bavaria. 2) Dairy milk was constantly keeping a rough 10% below the iodine 131 limiting value. Drinking water remained unpolluted. 3) From the beginning to the middle of May vegetables such as spinach and the like, potherbs as well as pollen and honey were generally showing values above the iodine and cesium limiting values. 4) The beginning of July was showing small fruits (about 250 Bq/kg cesium 137 and 134) and venison (about 600 Bq/kg cesium) to be still contaminated considerably. 5) The contamination of sand boxes proved to be negligible compared with other sources. 6) The contamination and risk of breathing highly active 'hot particles' cannot be evaluated definitely. 7) The high concentration of long-lived radioactive substances in sewage sludges requires the sludges to be carefully analyzed before they are made available for manuring purposes. 8) According to estimations cesium is assumed to be one of the major factors to be made responsible for a long-term contamination of foods.
