DYNAMICS OF RADIOACTIVE CONTAMINATION OF AGRICULTURAL FOOD PRODUCTS AND NATURAL FOODSTUFFS AFTER THE CHERNOBYL ACCIDENT

Abstract

The present work is devoted to an analysis of the data on dynamics of 137Cs and 90Sr transfer factors in the most critical (during different time periods after the radioactive fallout) links of the food chain that are necessary for assessing current internal doses for population and for reconstruction and long-term forecast of these doses.
