Self-cleaning in an estuarine area formerly affected by 226Ra anthropogenic enhancements: numerical simulations
(Elsevier, 2005)
A numerical model of the Odiel–Tinto estuary (Spain) has been developed to study the self-cleaning process that was evidenced from 226Ra measurements in water and sediments collected in the period 1999–2002, after direct ...

Occupational dosimetric assessment (inhalation pathway) from the application of phosphogypsum in agriculture in South West Spain
(Elsevier, 2009)
Phosphogypsum (PG) has been traditionally applied as Ca-amendment in saline marsh soils in SW Spain, where available PG has 710 ± 40 Bq kg−1 of 226Ra. This work assesses the potential radiological risk for farmers through ...

Implications for food safety of the uptake by tomato of 25 trace-elements from a phosphogypsum amended soil from SW Spain
(Elsevier, 2014)
Phosphogypsum (PG) has been usually applied as Ca-amendment to reclaim sodic soils such as those in the marshland area of Lebrija (SW Spain). This work aimed at the effects of PG amendments on the uptake of trace-elements ...

Self-cleaning in an estuarine area formerly affected by 226Ra anthropogenic enhancements
(Elsevier, 2004)
The estuary of the Odiel River has been affected by both direct discharges of phosphogypsum (radium enriched industrial waste) and dissolution and weathering of the exposed piles where this radium enriched waste was ...
Artículo
Measuring and modelling temporal trends of 226Ra in waters of a Spanish estuary affected by the phosphate industry
(Elsevier, 2005)
The presence and temporal evolution (1990–2001) of 226Ra in a tidal estuary affected by the phosphate industry has been investigated. Water samples collected in the course of four sep arate sampling campaigns were analysed ...

Extensive radioactive characterization of a phosphogypsum stack in SW Spain: 226Ra, 238U, 210Po concentrations and 222Rn exhalation rate
(Elsevier, 2009)
Phosphogypsum (PG) is a by-product of the phosphate fertilizer industries that contains relatively high concentrations of uranium series radionuclides. The US-EPA regulates the agriculture use of PG, attending to its 226Ra ...

Transfer of Cd, Pb, Ra and U from Phosphogypsum Amended Soils to Tomato Plants
(Springer, 2009)
About 170 million tons of phosphogypsum (PG) are annually generated worldwide as a by-product of phosphoric acid factories. Agricultural uses of PG could become the main sink for this waste, which usually contains significant ...
Artículo
The cumulative effect of three decades of phosphogypsum amendments in reclaimed marsh soils from SW Spain: 226Ra, 238U and Cd contents in soils and tomato fruit
(Elsevier, 2008)
Phosphogypsum (PG), a by-product of the phosphate fertiliser industries, has been applied as soil amendment to reduce Na saturation in soils, as in the reclaimed marsh area from SW Spain, where available PG has a typical ...
Artículo
The geochemical behavior of natural radionuclides in coastal waters: A modeling study for the Huelva estuary
(Elsevier, 2013)
A numerical model to study the behavior and distribution of natural radionuclides in sediments of an estuary (Odiel and Tinto rivers, SW Spain) affected by acid mine drainage and industrial activities has been developed. The ...
Artículo
Radioactive impact in sediments from an estuarine system affected by industrial wastes releases
(Elsevier, 2002)
A big fertilizer industrial complex and a vast extension of phosphogypsum piles (12 km2), sited in the estuary formed by the Odiel and Tinto river mouths (southwest of Spain), are producing an unambiguous radioactive ...
