The accident of the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station, Tokyo Electric Power Company Holdings, Inc. occurred due to the Great East Japan Earthquake, Sanriku offshore earthquake, of 9.0 magnitude and the accompanying tsunami. As a result, large amount of radioactive materials was released into the environment. Under these circumstances, Japan Atomic Energy Agency (JAEA) has been conducting "Long-term Assessment of Transport of Radioactive Contaminants in the Environment of Fukushima" concerning radioactive materials released in environment, especially migration behavior of radioactive cesium since November 2012. This report is a summary of the research results that have been obtained in environmental dynamics research conducted by JAEA in Fukushima Prefecture.

Development of the training tools for nuclear security; Physical Protection Exercise Field (PPEF) and Virtual Reality (VR) training system

Kawata, Norio; Wakabayashi, Shuji; Hanai, Tasuku; Yamaguchi, Yasuo; Nonaka, Nobuyuki; Scharmer, C.*

Proceedings of International Conference on Nuclear Security; Enhancing Global Efforts (CD-ROM), 10 Pages, 2014/03

The ISCN of the JAEA provides effective trainings in order to strengthen nuclear security for emerging nuclear power countries in Asia to realize Japan's National Statement at the Washington Nuclear Security Summit in April 2010. As a part of these activities, the ISCN has developed the PPEF and the VR training system, which are training tools to implement experience-oriented and interactive lessons. These two facilities are mutually complemented and contribute to deeper understandings through actual practices in addition to the classroom lesson. The ISCN initiated its full-scale training from 2012 JFY, and these two facilities received more than 450 trainees or vistors from Japan and over-sea countries. This paper provides the basic concepts and outlines of these two facilities and the training programs that use them for teaching the nuclear security.

Development of a virtual reality system for training in nuclear security

Hanai, Tasuku; Yamaguchi, Yasuo

Proceedings of INMM 54th Annual Meeting (CD-ROM), 10 Pages, 2013/07

The Integrated Support Center for Nuclear Nonproliferation and Nuclear Security (ISCN), under the Japan Atomic Energy Agency (JAEA), has been doing activities, since its establishment, that contribute to the strengthening of nuclear nonproliferation and nuclear security. ISCN is providing training courses for the purpose of capacity-building assistance through human-resource development. ISCN has a Virtual Reality (VR) System specifically for training in nuclear security. The course is specifically for trainees who have had few experiences in nuclear security. Trainees can see the nuclear physical-protection (PP) system of a nuclear power station in virtual space and learn how it works. ISCN has also been preparing another training course that will be for operators in Central Alarm Stations (CAS). Trainees will be able to brush up their skills through simulation exercises against enforced entry.

Development of a Virtual Reality system for nuclear security training

Yamaguchi, Yasuo; Hanai, Tasuku

no journal, , 

The Integrated Support Center for Nuclear nonproliferation and Nuclear Security (ISCN) under the Japan Atomic Energy Agency (JAEA) began the development of Virtual Reality (VR) training system for the purpose of teaching trainees nuclear security. ISCN set up two VR training courses by 2013. One is for teaching a nuclear security system of nuclear plants. The VR training system allows trainees to have virtual experiences visiting a nuclear plant. Through these experiences, trainees are able to learn how physical protection systems work in the plant. The course focuses on learning fundamental knowledge and is suitable for trainees having little experiences in the field of nuclear security. The other is for teaching fundamental skills corresponding to a contingency plan in a Central Alarm Station (CAS) of nuclear power plant. Computers of the VR training system deploy an intrusion scenario in a virtual space. Trainees in a group sit in front of 3-D screens and play a role play game in a virtual CAS. Through the exercise, trainees are able to learn skills necessary to the contingency case of nuclear plants. In my presentation, I will introduce the two training courses, advantages and disadvantages of the VR training system, reactions of trainees and future plans.

Temporal change in depth profile of radiocaesium released by the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant accident in the Fukushima forest

no journal, , 

The depth profile of radiocaesium at the mountain forest of Abukuma Mountains, Fukushima Prefecture, shows the decreasing tendency of the radiocaesium inventory in the most upper part of the soil layer at ridge and valley bottom. A very slightly downward infiltration of the radiocaesium was found with decreasing of the inventory near the ground surface but most of the radiocaesium still exist in the upper part of the soil layer. Outflow of the radiocaesium from the mountain forest get to decrease due to the downward infiltration of the radiocaesium in the soil horizon by the application of the SACT model developed in JAEA.

Temporal changes of radiocesium outflow in mountainous forest of the Abukuma Mountains, Fukushima

This paper presents outflow characteristics of Cs-137 in mountainous forest of the Abukuma Mountains, Fukushima, during 2013-2014. Cs-137 deposition via throughfall, stemflow, and litterfall processes was estimated to be on the order of 10$$^{3}$$ Bq m$$^{-2}$$, and the outflow of Cs-137 via surface washoff was estimated to be on the order of 10$$^{2}$$ Bq m$$^{-2}$$ from April 2013 to December 2014 in the experimental plots installed in deciduous broad-leaved and cedar forests in the Abukuma Mountains. Cs-137 inventories of forest soil down to a level of 1 cm were decreasing in ridge and valley-bottom soil during the period from December 2012 to October 2014. The inventories in mountain slope showed both decreasing and increasing tendencies because of the heterogeneous transportation of Cs-137 via surface washoff on the slope. The results of outflow rate simulations using the SACT model developed in the Japan Atomic Energy Agency indicate decreasing tendency accompanied with a deeper penetration of Cs-137 into soil profile. Thus, the forest floor in the mountainous forest seems to be a sink of radiocesium contamination rather than a source for the contamination of the other ecosystems.
