Incidents in the past have made scientists aware of the need for
accurate methods of radionuclide analyses in order to estimate the risk
to the public from released radioactivity .This book is an
authoritative, up-to-date collection of research contributions presented
at the 11th International Symposium on Environmental Radiochemical
Analysis. Representing the work of leading scientists from across the
globe it presents information on analytical radiochemistry, the
behaviour of radionuclides in the environment, radioactively
contaminated land, fate of radionuclides in natural and engineered
environments and behaviour of radionuclides in radioactive wastes. This
essential work will be a key reference for graduates and professionals
who work across fields involving analytical chemistry, environmental
science and technology, and hazards and waste research and disposal.
