Times Cited Count:0 Percentile:0(Environmental Sciences)One of the current major radiation exposure pathways from the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant (FDNPP) accident-fallout is inhalation of the re-suspended Cs occurring in air. While wind-induced soil particle resuspension has been recognized as a primary mechanism of
Cs resuspension, studies following the FDNPP accident suggested that fungal spores can be a significant source of the atmospheric
Cs particularly in the rural areas such as difficult-to-return zone (DRZ). To elucidate the relative importance of the two resuspension phenomena, we propose a model simulating resuspension of
Cs as soil particles and fungal spores, and applied it to DRZ. Our model's calculation showed that soil particle resuspension was responsible for the surface-air
Cs observed during winter-spring, but could not account for the higher
Cs concentrations observed in summer-autumn. The higher concentrations in the summer-autumn were in general reproduced by implementing fungal spore
Cs emission, that replenished low soil particle
Cs resuspension in that period. According to our model's concept,
Cs accumulation in fungal spores and high spore emission rate characterized by the rural environment were likely responsible for the abundance of spore
Cs in the air. It was inferred that the influence of the fungal spores on the atmospheric
Cs would last longer since un-decontaminated forests still exist in DRZ.
