Аннотация:The spatial variability of 137Cs contamination was evaluated at a field scale, at
three study sites marked by different landscape positions. Two of them are situated in a
forest, and one–in a meadow. The sites are located 170 km away from the Chernobyl
Nuclear Power Plant. The objectives of the research were (a) to characterise variability of
137Cs contamination across the sites, and (b) to determine and describe any relation of
137Cs contamination with topography. Soil radioactive contamination was measured ...
