MOGRA (Migration Of GRound Additions) is a migration prediction code for toxic ground additions including radioactive materials in a terrestrial environment. MOGRA consists of computational codes that are applicable to various evaluation target systems, and can be used on personal computers. The computational code has the dynamic compartment analysis block at its core, the graphical user interface (GUI) for computation parameter settings and results displays, data files and so on. The compartments are obtained by classifying various natural environments into groups that exhibit similar properties. MOGRA has varieties of databases, which consist of radionuclides decay chart, distribution coefficients between solid and liquid, transfer factors from soil to plant, transfer coefficients from feed to beef and milk, concentration factors, and age dependent dose conversion factors for many radionuclides. Here the status of development of MOGRA is presented.

The functionality of MOGRA is being verified by applying it in the analyses of the migration rates of radioactive substances from the atmosphere to soils and plants and flow rates into the rivers. This has been achieved by also taking their mode classifications into consideration. In this report, a hypothetical combination of land usage was supposed to check the function of MOGRA. The land usage was consisted from cultivated lands, forests, uncultivated lands, urban area, river, and lake. Each land usage has its own inside model which is basic module. Also supposed was homogeneous contamination of the surface land from atmospheric deposition of Cs-137 (1.0 Bq/m
). The system can analyze the dynamic changes of Cs-137 concentrations in each compartment, fluxes from one compartment to another compartment.

Concerning atmospherically released tritium (T) and C-14 we have developed a new method, which can analyze their fluxes and the deposition velocities. Firstly, a simultaneous sampling system for the speciation of atmospheric tritium and C-14 has been developed. This system determines varieties of chemical forms of tritium and C-14, namely tritiated water (HTO), elemental tritium gas (HT) and tritiated methane (CH
T) for tritium, CO and 14C H4 for C-14, respectively. Secondly, a new method was developed to determine HT and CO deposition velocities. This method can determine their fluxes and the deposition velocities without any tritium and C-14 sources.

Two dynamic compartment models were constructed as basic river models for MOGRA (Migration Of GRound Additions), an environmental-load effect predicting code. One is 1 component river model, in which radionuclides in particulate form and dissolved form are considered to be in equilibrium in the river water. Another one is 2 component river model, in which particulate form and dissolved form are considered to be different component and are separately compartmentalized. In each model the river sediment is set in a compartment, and the sedimentation of particulate form and resuspension of radionuclides in the river sediment are taken into account.To verify the analysis function of the constructed models, calculation conditions were set using data of Cs-137 concentration in the river water derived from Kuji river, Japan, and analysis was carried out. Comparing two models, almost no difference is seen when sedimentation velocity is low, while there is apparent difference when sedimentation velocity is high.

In the 3rd Stage Crossover Research (1998 to 2003), a project on Development of a dynamic transfer model of radionuclides in the soil ecosphere,is currently being promoted. The following five researches are carried out in this project. 1) Research into the forms of existence of nuclides and their change in the soil (NIRS and JAERI), 2) Research into the transition behavior of radionuclides in plants (IES, RIKEN and NIRS), 3) Research into the relation to the microorganism and on environmental remediation (RIKEN, JAERI and NIRS), 4) Research on the migration of radionuclides from atmosphere to soil and plant (MRI and JAERI), and 5) Database construction on transfer parameters (JAERI, NIRS and MRI). JAERI, MRI and NIRS are working on the development of a dynamic transfer model such as MOGRA for radionuclides on the basis of a gained knowledge about the environmental behavior through cooperation with universities, etc. This model is also capable of the predicting the behavior of materials that are harmful to the environment such as hazardous heavy metals discharged in the soil ecosphere. In this presentation, we will overview the ourcome of the 3rd stage research.
