Abstract
Abstract Concerning the Fukushima nuclear accident, many radionuclides were released into the marine environment, which caused contamination of many parts of the world through ocean circulation. Regarding inland nuclear power plants, freshwater habitats such as reservoirs and rivers could also be polluted by the radioactive effluents. Several models were developed to track radionuclide transport in the water environment. However, the applicability and characteristics of these models were not fully identified and compared, particularly for the different water environments. In this study, the research progress and application examples of radionuclide transport models in rivers and oceans in recent years are systematically summarized, and the methods for simulating radionuclide transport behavior in various water environments are compared. An adequate model is expected to be instrumental in assessing radioactive pollution in various water environments.
