Current trends in radiocarbon in Skagerrak and Kattegat assessed by brown algae from Swedish coastal waters.
Carbon-14 often dominates the effective dose to the public from authorized discharges from Swedish nuclear power plants (NPPs). In contrast to air-borne releases, water-borne discharges of 14C are currently not routinely monitored at Swedish NPPs. We have measured 14C in Fucus spp. (brown algae, used as bioindicators of 14C) in shallow waters at the Swedish west coast from 2020 to 2024. At Ringhals NPP, 14C in Fucus spp. was up to ~50 per cent higher than at nearby marine reference sites and was also higher than observed in the nearby terrestrial environment. The local marine environment of Ringhals NPP showed high spatial and temporal variability in 14C. Carbon-14 in Fucus spp. was generally higher in Skagerrak than in the more southernly Kattegat, likely mainly due to influence from discharges from the spent nuclear fuel reprocessing plant in La Hague in France and from its counterpart in Sellafield in the UK.
期刊介绍:
Radiation Protection Dosimetry covers all aspects of personal and environmental dosimetry and monitoring, for both ionising and non-ionising radiations. This includes biological aspects, physical concepts, biophysical dosimetry, external and internal personal dosimetry and monitoring, environmental and workplace monitoring, accident dosimetry, and dosimetry related to the protection of patients. Particular emphasis is placed on papers covering the fundamentals of dosimetry; units, radiation quantities and conversion factors. Papers covering archaeological dating are included only if the fundamental measurement method or technique, such as thermoluminescence, has direct application to personal dosimetry measurements. Papers covering the dosimetric aspects of radon or other naturally occurring radioactive materials and low level radiation are included. Animal experiments and ecological sample measurements are not included unless there is a significant relevant content reason.
