Abstract

This paper presents the results of radioactivity studies of environmental factors such as surface water, sediment, aquatic vegetation and soil. The concentrations of¹³⁷Cs,⁹⁰Sr,³H, U, Ca, and Mg in water samples were determined by radiochemical and chemical methods. Gamma-spectrometric analyses were performed for all the samples. The analysis showed a decrease in concentrations of¹³⁷Cs in water, aquatic vegetation and sediment, but a constant level of¹³⁷Cs activity in soil (0–5 cm depth). The average concentrations of⁹⁰Sr,³H, U, Ca and Mg were about 7 mBq/l, 11 Bq/l, 0.6 g/l 60 mg/l and 11 mg/l, respectively.
