Abstract

Distribution of technogenic radionuclides in the landscape of the Berezovyi Isl. (Yenisei River) is studied. The observed variations in the density of radioactive contamination are associated with nonuniform lithologic composition of soil-forming rocks and also with different duration of the flooding periods. Radionuclide distribution in alluvial sediments and among fractions of the soil in the region of the Balchug settlement is analyzed, making emphasis on the contribution of the clay fraction to accumulation of radionuclides.
