An Empirical Study of Radionuclides Behavioral Characteristics in Oceanic Biota From Waste Water Ejection

Abstract The concept of ecosystem changes of radionuclides is important to ensure product management for food safety. The Fukushima nuclear accident which happened in recent years released a massive concentration of radiocesium into the ocean and subsequent water bodies across Japan. In this research, our main mandate is to study the behavior of some radionuclides (Cesium (CS) 137, Strontium (Sr) 90, Carbon (C) 14, and Tritium (H3). These radionuclides transfer occurs through aquatic pathways to aquatic animals as confirmed in a simulation and air monitoring surveys. The decay characteristics and the transfer medium in Pisceverous Fish species, Benthic Fish species, and Forage Fish in the Pacific Ocean; understanding the decay mode, and transfer model is the driving force of the development of systematic policy models for a nuclear emergency. The oceanic study concentration in some sea mammals and herbivores was developed using the exponential double dynamic model. The results indicate that Pisceverous fish species such as octopus and squid are predicted to have a higher concentration at the onset of an emergency. On the Allometric scale a predicted concentration of 0.766mSv of radioisotope concentration in an oyster fish. The southern belt oysters are observed to contain a higher sediment property, thus the susceptibility of concentration in this fish species is higher than its normal level.

Abstract The concept of ecosystem changes of radionuclides is important to ensure product management for food safety.
