Sedimentation rates, residence times and radionuclide inventories in lake Baikal from Cs-137 and Pb-210 in sediment cores

Measurements of caesium-137, arising from atomic bombs, and lead-210, a natural isotope, were made in cores from several points in the 3 basins of Baikal lake. The effective sedimentation rates were the same as in the Great Lakes and consistent with previous indirect estimations. Longer residence ti...
