  • More about Soil-Plant Transfer of Radionuclides in Non-Temperate Environments: Report of Working Group 4 Transfer Processes and Data for Radiological Impact Assessment Subgroup 3 on Non-temperate Data

This publication discusses radionuclide transfer in tropical and arid environments, focusing on crop uptake from soils. The data is relevant for estimating food chain radionuclide transfer to humans and assessing radiation doses. It covers equilibrium conditions and is suitable for radiological environmental impact assessment in planned exposure situations. The data is also compared with temperate environments.

Publisher: IAEA


This comprehensive publication delves into the intricate realm of radionuclide transfer in tropical and arid environments, with a particular emphasis on the uptake of radionuclides by crops from soils. Extensive data collection and meticulous analysis have been carried out to provide valuable insights into the transfer of radionuclides through food chains and their potential impact on human health from the consumption of plant products. The data encompass equilibrium conditions between radionuclide dynamics within and between environmental compartments, making them highly relevant for conducting radiological environmental impact assessments in both planned and existing exposure scenarios. Moreover, this publication categorizes the data based on an international climate classification scheme, allowing for a comparative analysis of summary values derived for tropical and arid environments with those presented in IAEA Technical Reports Series No. 472 for temperate environments. By undertaking this comprehensive examination, the publication sheds light on the complex dynamics of radionuclide transfer in these unique environments, contributing to a better understanding of the potential risks associated with radionuclide exposure and the need for effective mitigation measures.
