Abstract
The radiation conditions in Moscow and the Moscow region are assessed using observations at the Roshydromet radiation monitoring network. The paper presents the dynamics of the radiation background caused by technogenic radionuclides in the environment, starting from the period of nuclear tests in the atmosphere to the present. A comparative analysis is provided for the radiation characteristics in Moscow and the Moscow region, in different regions of the center of European Russia, and in the background areas during the period of the most significant radiation events in the recent decades: the accidents at Chernobyl in 1986, Fukushima in 2011, and an incident in Elektrostal in 2013.
