JNC has an on-going programme of research and development relating to the safety assessment of the deep geological system of high-level radioactive waste. This paper summarises the approach used for the deriviation of "flux to dose conversion factors" for the range of geosphere-biosphere interfaces and potential exposure groups and discussion on key parameters in JNC' biosphere assessment.
