Features of radionuclides migration behavior in river systems have been summarized. Referred researches are those related to the global fallout due to weapon tests and the fallout due the Chernobyl accident. This summary aims to serve to provide basic findings on an occasion of the Fukushima nuclear accident. Migration of radionuclides in river systems is a persistent process including various time scale events. Differences by radionuclides appear clearly in their input fractions from the ground, and also in their long-range transport. For river systems' contamination, it is considered that countermeasures at stages of water treatment and aquatic food intake. Several decision support systems, which compare effectiveness and adverse effects of various countermeasures, must be very useful to examine that applicability comprehensively.

Results suggest that Pu and Am isotopes were preferentially associated with dissolved humic substances (HS) of high molecular size. A model calculation of the complexation of Pu and Am with HS also supported the above. This study has expanded our understanding of the general role of natural organic colloids in dictating the chemical form of actinides in the surface aquatic environment.

This report is a compilation of the shared data derived from the environmental monitoring by RADEK (The state Enterprise for Region Monitoring of Environment and Dosimetric Control of Ukraine) and the record of environmental characteristics derived from field observations during a research project (1992-1999) between JAERI (Japan Atomic Energy Research Institute) and CHESCIR (Chernobyl Science and Technology Centre for International Research). The compiled data in this report are especially related to one particular research subject (Subject-3) of the project on the migration of radionuclides released into the terrestrial and aquatic environments after a nuclear accident. The present report shows the basis of published works concerning Subject-3.

Times Cited Count:14 Percentile:65.6(Chemistry, Inorganic & Nuclear)Areas contaminated with radionuclides from the Chernobyl nuclear accident have been identified in Pripyat River near the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant. The bottom sediments contained Cs (10 - 10 Bq/m) within 0-30 cm depth, which is comparable to the ground soil of in the vicinity of the nuclear power plant (the Exclusion Zone). The sediments also accumulated Sr (10 Bq/m ), Pu (10 Bq/m ), Am (10 Bq/m ) derived from the accident.The comparison of these inventories with those of the released radionuclides at the accident and the experimental analysis using the selective sequential extraction of the radionuclides in the sediments suggest that the potential mobility of Cs and Pu is low compared with Sr in the bottom sediment, while the potential dissolution of Sr from the river bottom sediment should be taken into account with respect to the long-term radiological influence on the aquatic environment.
