Natural background of radium radioisotopes in the river bottom sediments of Czechia and their radioactive contamination due to uranium industry

Original language description

Within the CMI monitoring, the concentrations of natural radionuclides radium­226 and radium­228 were monitored in the river bottom sediments. The natural background of these radionuclides and human activity influence to the water environment were evaluated. It turned out, that the sediments are very good indicators of radioactive contamination, including the old loads, especially the radium­226 contamination due to former uranium mining and milling. The radium­226 contamination rate can be convenientlyassessed according to the radium­226 and radium­228 concentrations ratio.
