Abstract
Radiocarbon variations in the atmospheric CO 2 have been observed at two localities in Slovakia (Bratislava and Žlkovce). Žlkovce is situated about 60 km NE from Bratislava, and only 5 km from the Bohunice Nuclear Power Plant (NPP). The observed Δ 14C levels provide a unique evidence of the long-term impact of the Bohunice NPP on the Bratislava region, as well as on the decreased fossil fuel CO 2 emissions. The radiation doses estimated to the local public have been around 3 μSv/year, 20% of the dose from global fallout 14C present in the environment.
