Abstract

The Tohoku-Pacific Ocean Earthquake that occurred on March 11, 2011 and the resulting tsunami caused the loss of many people and extensive damage in a wide area. Among the anthropogenic radionuclides dispersed from the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant, 134Cs and 137Cs have very long half-lives of approximately 2 years and 30 years, respectively, and there are concerns about their uptake into soil and living things. This paper describes a study conducted by the authors' group on radiocesium activity concentrations in the environment.
