Abstract
The surface seawater and marine organisms were collected on the Japanese coast and analyzed for their137Cs concentrations during the 1980's. The137Cs concentrations in surface seawater decreased almost exponentially with time and the137Cs removal rate constant was estimated to be 0.0445 y−1. The137Cs concentrations in marine organisms also decreased almost exponentially with time. The environmental half-lives of137Cs in muscle and viscera of fish, crustacea, and seaweed were estimated from the measured decreases of137Cs concentrations.
