Abstract

The distributions of 238Pu and 239+240Pu in surface soils from the Piemonte region were measured and the main factors influencing Pu concentrations investigated. Rainfall, altitude and the concentration of organic matter play an important role, while other soil parameters (pedology, lithology and geomorphology) are of lesser significance. Contour maps of the surface soil concentrations of 238Pu and 239+240Pu are reported.
