Soil-to-plant transfer factors for natural radionuclides and stable elements in a Mediterranean area 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Vera Tome F Blanco Rodríguez MP Lozano JC 《Journal of environmental radioactivity》2003,65(2):161-175
The transfer factors (TF) for natural uranium isotopes (238U and 234U), thorium isotopes (232Th, 230Th and 228Th), and 226Ra were obtained in plant samples (grass-pasture) growing in granitic and alluvial soils around a disused uranium mine located in the Extremadura region in the south-west of Spain. Affected and non-affected areas of the mine presented large differences in the activity concentrations of radionuclides of the uranium series. We also determined transfer factors for several stable elements (essential and non-essential). A set of statistical tests were applied to validate the data. The results showed that the transfer factors for both the natural radionuclides and the stable elements are independent of the two substrate types involved and also of the two areas considered in the study. 相似文献

Spatial and temporal heterogeneity in metallic elements in industrialized aquatic bird habitats 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
This study examined the potential for exposure of migratory aquatic birds to contaminants in highly industrialized habitats at Baltimore Harbor, Maryland. Seven nearshore, benthic sites were sampled every 3 or 6 months from June 1987 to December 1988. Twenty metallic elements were measured in composites (i.e. annelids, amphipods, and isopods were pooled), clams, and sediments. Elevated concentrations were widespread throughout the sites, depending on the element. Most concentrations in composites were lowest at sites innermost and outside the harbor. Higher concentrations in composites were not related to season. Most concentrations were higher in composites than in sediments or clams, but they varied by element for clams and sediments. The largest flock of wintering waterfowl frequented the site exhibiting the highest concentrations of most elements ( [Formula: see text] ). Average concentrations of known toxic elements were probably not harmful to aquatic birds or their prey, but the highest detected concentrations of eight elements warrant caution. At least eight other elements exceeded background concentrations, but toxicity to birds or their prey are unknown. 相似文献
