Transport of low 240 Pu/ 239 Pu atom ratio plutonium-species in the Ob and Yenisey Rivers to the Kara Sea

Plutonium (Pu) isotope ratios can be used to differentiate between sources of Pu contamination such as nuclear weapon production, weapon fallout as well as accidental and routine releases from nuclear installations. To obtain information on the contamination level, speciation and sources of Pu in th...
