••
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.

TL;DR: In this article, the adsorption of the fallout radionuclides 137 Cs and 210 Pb by individual size fractions in soils and their specific surface area was derived from laboratory experiments and empirical observations of natural soils and sediments.

••
TL;DR: This work explored the use of a continuous radon monitor to measure radon concentrations in coastal zone waters over time periods from hours to days and showed that the mixing loss derived from the 223Ra gradient agreed very favorably to the estimated range based on the calculated radon fluxes.
