Simulation Scenarios for Potential Radioactive Spreading in the 21 st Century from Rivers and External Sources in the Russian Arctic Coastal Zone.
The overall objective of RADARC’s research programme is to perform simulation scenarios for the 21st century, including global warming scenarios, of potential radioactive spreading from sources in the Russian Arctic coastal zone and its impact on Barents, Greenland and Norwegian Seas and the Arctic...

The overall objective of RADARC’s research programme is to perform simulation scenarios for the 21st century, including global warming scenarios, of potential radioactive spreading from sources in the Russian Arctic coastal zone and its impact on Barents, Greenland and Norwegian Seas and the Arctic Ocean in order to supportdecision making for: risk prevention, forecasting and preparedness for probable crisis, alert and detection, relief and mitigation and damage assessment. These studies were realised using hydrodynamic modelling of the rivers, estuaries, coastal Kara Sea and the open ocean aquatic systems of the northern Russia and the Arctic and a related comprehensive database that was organised in a Geographical Information System (GIS). Under the RADARC project a new modelling approach was implemented using Generic Model System, where the four types of models were integrated and merged. The Generic Model System (GMS) that was created for the first time include the GIS and an interactive hydrodynamic models chain for simulations of radionuclide transport from relevant land-based sources through the river and estuary system to and in the Kara Sea as well as in the Arctic and North Atlantic Oceans.
