Technogenic radionuclides in the barents sea

Information on the sources of radioactive contamination of the Barents Sea in 1961–2000 is presented and the sources are ranked. It is shown that the main source was cross-border transport by ocean currents of radioactive wastes, dumped into the Irish Sea and the English Channel by radiochemical pla...

It is shown that the main source was cross-border transport by ocean currents of radioactive wastes, dumped into the Irish Sea and the English Channel by radiochemical plants in Great Britain and France.
