Radionuclide concentrations in soil and lifetime cancer risk due to gamma radioactivity in Kirklareli, Turkey.
TL;DR: The average soil radionuclides' concentrations of Kirklareli were within the worldwide range although some extreme values had been determined, and annual effective gamma doses and the excess lifetime risks of cancer were higher than the world's average.
Journal ArticleDOI
Natural and anthropogenic radionuclides in rocks and beach sands from Ezine region (Canakkale), Western Anatolia, Turkey.
Yüksel Örgün,N. Altinsoy,Sabah Yilmaz Şahin,Yıldırım Güngör,Ali Haydar Gültekin,Gürsel Karahan,Zekiye Karacık +6 more
TL;DR: The Raeq activities of the pluton and sands are higher than the recommended maximum value of 370 Bq kg(-1) criterion limit of Raeq activity for building materials.
Journal ArticleDOI
Determination of radioactivity levels and hazards of soil and sediment samples in Firtina Valley (Rize, Turkey).
Aslı Kurnaz,B. Kucukomeroglu,R. Keser,Nazmi Turan Okumuşoğlu,F. Korkmaz,Gürsel Karahan,Uğur Çevik +6 more
TL;DR: The natural radioactivity levels in soil and sediment samples of Firtina Valley have been determined and the results have been compared with other radioactivity measurements in different country's soils and sediments.
Journal ArticleDOI
Assessment of gamma dose rates around Istanbul (Turkey)
Gürsel Karahan,A Bayulken +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the average annual effective dose equivalent for a person living in Istanbul was found to be about 80μSv, while the average outdoor gamma dose rate in air at 1 m above ground was determined as 65 nGy−h−1.
Journal ArticleDOI
Natural radioactivity levels in granitic plutons and groundwaters in Southeast part of Eskisehir, Turkey.
TL;DR: The radioactivity level of the granitoid plutons and its effect on the groundwaters in the southeast part of Eskisehir is investigated and values of the Kaymaz pluton are higher than the average concentrations of the magmatic rocks of granitic composition.
