Abstract

Concentrations of 210Po, a natural alpha-radiating radionuclide were determined in various Black Sea fish species sampled along the coastal zone and in the bays of Sevastopol from May to June, 1999. Its value increased in the ecological row from the bottom through the demersal to pelagic region. Among the pelagic species, the Black Sea anchovy and sprat displayed the highest concentrations of 210P. In fishes, the liver was the 210Po accumulating organ.
