PardNor - PARameters for ingestion Dose models for NORdic areas:Status report for the NKS-B activity 2009
The ECOSYS foodchain model is built into the European standard decision support systems ARGOS and RODOS, which are integrated in the preparedness for radiological events in the Nordic countries. However, a review has revealed that a number of parameters in ECOSYS do not reflect the current state-of-...
