In a sediment core of Nishiyama reservoir at Nagasaki, depth profiles of $$^{240}$$Pu/$$^{239}$$Pu ratio, $$^{239+240}$$Pu and $$^{137}$$Cs concentrations were determined. Sediments containing plutonium and $$^{137}$$Cs, which were fallout deposited immediately after a detonation of Nagasaki atomic bomb, were identified in the core. Observed below the sediments were macroscopic charcoals, providing evidence for initial deposit of the fallout. This is the first entire depositional records of plutonium and $$^{137}$$Cs released from the Nagasaki atomic bomb together with those from atmospheric nuclear tests.
