Should we measure plutonium concentrations in marine sediments near Fukushima?
(Springer, 2013)
Pu contamination originating from Fukushima accident has not been detected in marine sediment samples collected outside a 30 km circle around the plant. It is shown, by means of numerical modelling, that if any impact ...

Assessing emergency situations and their aftermath in urban areas: The EMRAS II Urban Areas Working Group
(EDP Sciences, 2011)
The Urban Areas Working Group is part of the International Atomic Energy Agency’s EMRAS II (Environmental Modelling for Radiation Safety) Programme. The goal of this Working Group is to test and improve the capabilities ...

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 ...

A modeling study of Ra-226 dispersion in an estuarine system in south-west Spain
(Elsevier, 1994)
A numerical model to study 226Ra dispersion in the Odiel River, in which two fertilizer plants release their wastes, has been developed. The hydrodynamic equations have been solved to obtain the instantaneous water state ...

The marine kd and water/sediment interaction problem
(Elsevier, 2018)
The behavior of marine distribution coefficients is analyzed with the help of numerical experiments and ana-lytical solutions of equations describing kinetic models for uptake/release of radionuclides. The difficulties ...

Modelling the flux of radionuclides from the Rhone River into the Mediterranean Sea
(EDP Sciences, 2005)
A numerical model has been developed to simulate the input of radionuclides into the Mediterranean Sea through the Rhone River plume. The model is fully 3D. It solves the hydrodynamic equations, which include baroclinic ...

The Zanclean megaflood of the Mediterranean – Searching for independent evidence
(Elsevier, 2020)
About six million years ago, the Mediterranean Sea underwent a period of isolation from the ocean and widespread salt deposition known as the Messinian Salinity Crisis (MSC), allegedly leading to a kilometer-scale level ...

Three-dimensional modelling of the tidal dispersion of non-conservative radionuclides in the marine environment. Application to 239,240 Pu dispersion in the eastern Irish Sea
(Elsevier, 1999)
A three-dimensional model to simulate the tidal dispersion of non-conservative radionuclides in a marine environment has been developed. The model solves the three-dimensional hydrodynamic equations using normalized s ...

A set of rapid-response models for pollutant dispersion assessments in southern Spain coastal waters
(Elsevier, 2010)
Three rapid-response Lagrangian particle-tracking dispersion models have been developed for southern Spain coastal waters. The three domains cover the Gulf of Cádiz (Atlantic Ocean), the Alborán Sea (Med iterranean), and ...

Modelling the environmental behaviour of pollutants in Algeciras Bay (south Spain)
(Elsevier, 2012)
An environmental study of Algeciras Bay is carried out through numerical modelling. First, a 2D barotrop ic model is applied to calculate tides and mean circulation. Results of this model are used by a sediment transport ...
