A Model for the Monitoring Organization for Forest Ecosystems of Japan Contaminated with 137Cs and 134Cs Resulting the Fukushima-Daiichi NPP Accident
Abstract
Anthropogenic accidents, which result in high-scaled radionuclides release into environment, show a similar mechanism in the contaminated territories creation. Therefore, the analysis of separate cases, despite their uniqueness, provides considerably high value. Such analysis allows the determination of the most and least effective solutions. Radioecological monitoring has become the main subject or our study, being an essential managerial instrument under the high-scaled radionuclide contamination of environment. The main characteristics and the development stages of the monitoring organization for surface ecosystems within the ChNPP accident zone have been considered. Basing on the analysis results, an organizational model for the radioecological monitoring of forest ecosystems within the ‘Fukushima-Daiichi’ NPP accident zone has been proposed. The monitoring includes two levels for the observation network – basic and special, which produce information on the contamination parameters and on the radioecological processes development, correspondingly.
