Spatial distribution of fallout and lithogenic radionuclides controlled by soil carbon and water erosion in an agroforestry South-Pyrenean catchment Universiteit Gent
The mineral composition of soils and weathering processes are known to control the natural radioactivity of soils but research on the influence of water erosion and of main soil properties in the spatial variability of lithogenic and fallout radionuclides remains little investigated in heterogeneous agroecosystems with complex landscape. An extensive study was conducted to determine the mass activities of fallout (Cs-137, Pb-210(ex)) and ...
