摘要
Activity concentrations of Pu radioisotopes and 241Am were determined in the organic and mineral layers of four soil sections collected in 1996, providing for the first time information on the levels of these radionuclides in soil samples from Romania. The investigated site was an alpine pasture located in the Charpathian Mountains, in an area found as one of the most affected in Romania after the Chernobyl accident. In the examined soil sections radioactive inventories were estimated to be 500 Bq/m2 for 241Pu, 115 Bq/m2 for 239+240Pu, 8 Bq/m2 for 238Pu and 50 Bq/m2 for 241Am. On the basis of activity ratios in the soil profile, the source of the radioactive release is discussed.
