Application of Radioactive Fallout Cesium-137 for Measuring Soil Erosion and Sediment Accumulation Rates and Patterns: A Review

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors measured sediment accumulation rates by comparing the vertical distribution of Cs in sediments with the temporal deposition of fallout Cs from the atmosphere to locate sediment horizons, which can be used to determine sediment accumulation rate in a wide variety of depositional environments including reservoirs, lakes, wetlands, coastal areas and floodplains.

Handbook of Parameter Values for the Prediction of Radionuclide Transfer in Terrestrial and Freshwater Environments

TL;DR: The IAEA has published materials aimed at supporting the assessment of radiation impacts on human beings and the environment as discussed by the authors, including two major publications, Sediment Kd======¯¯¯¯s and Concentration Factors for Radionuclides in the Marine Environment (Technical Reports Series No. 247), published in 1985, and the Handbook of Parameter Values for the Prediction of radionuclide (Transfer in Temperate Environments) published in 1994, together provided a full set of available transfer parameter values for the marine, freshwater and terrestrial environments.

Selenium in the Environment, Metabolism and Involvement in Body Functions

TL;DR: Selenium ( Se 34 79 ) is a metalloid which is close to sulfur (S) in terms of properties as discussed by the authors, and it is one of the most abundant metalloids in the atmosphere.

Environmental processes affecting plant root uptake of radioactive trace elements and variability of transfer factor data: a review

TL;DR: The effects of competition with major ions present in the soil-plant system, the effects of rhizosphere processes and soil micro-organisms on bioavailability, the factors influencing transport to and uptake by roots and the processes affecting long-term uptake rates are reviewed.
