  1. 1. Distribution, Sources and Environmental Pathways of Radioactive 129I in Fresh and Saline Water in the Baltic Region

    Author : Abdulaziz Kekli; Ala Aldahan; Xiaolin Hou; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Earth sciences; 129I; iodine; environment; precipitation; river; Baltic Sea; radioactivity; Geovetenskap; Earth sciences; Geovetenskap;

    Abstract : This thesis deals with distribution, sources and pathways of radioactive 129I (T1/2=15.6 My) in 54 rivers covering the Baltic region, precipitation (rain and snow) from southern, central and northern Sweden, and saline water from three depth profiles in the Baltic Sea and a surface water transect from the Baltic to the Kattegat.

  2. 2. Iodine Isotopes (129I and 127I) in the Baltic Sea   : Tracer applications & environmental impact

    Author : Peng Yi; Ala Aldahan; Glen Snyder; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; radioactive 129I; stable 127I; AMS; iodine species; nuclear reprocessing facilities; tracers; Baltic Sea; circulation; water exchange; environmental impact;

    Abstract : 129I is a radioactive isotope (T1/2= 15.7 million years) produced through natural and anthropogenic pathways, but the anthropogenic production is presently dominating the Earth’s surface environments. READ MORE

  3. 3. Accelerator Mass Spectrometry of 36Cl and 129I : Analytical Aspects and Applications

    Author : Vasily Alfimov; Göran Possnert; Ala Aldahan; Hans-Arno Synal; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Environmental technology; Accelerator Mass Spectrometry; iodine-129; chlorine-36; gas-filled magnet; radioactive tracer; Arctic Ocean; Nordic Seas; North Atlantic; thermohaline circulation; Sellafield; La Hague; Miljöteknik; Environmental engineering; Miljöteknik;

    Abstract : Two long-lived halogen radionuclides (36Cl, T1/2 = 301 kyr, and 129I, T1/2 = 15.7 Myr) have been studied by means of Accelerator Mass Spectrometry (AMS) at the Uppsala Tandem Laboratory. The 36Cl measurements in natural samples using a medium-sized tandem accelerator (~1 MeV/amu) have been considered. READ MORE

  4. 4. Iodine Isotopes and their Species in Surface Water from the North Sea to the Northeastern Atlantic Ocean

    Author : Peng He; Ala Aldahan; Per Roos; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; iodine isotopes; 129I; 127I; oceans; North Sea; speciation; Atlantic Ocean; English Channel; Celtic Sea; AMS; iodine chemistry; geochemistry; Earth Science with specialization in Environmental Analysis; Geovetenskap med inriktning mot miljöanalys;

    Abstract : Huge amounts of anthropogenic 129I have been and still are released to the environment through liquid and gaseous discharges from the nuclear fuel reprocessing facilities worldwide and in particular the ones in Europe. Most of this 129I signal has been accumulated in the marine environment which plays a major role in the iodine natural pool. READ MORE

  5. 5. Accelerator mass spectrometry of 129I and its applications in natural water systems

    Author : Nadia Buraglio; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Materials science; Materialvetenskap; Materials science; Teknisk materialvetenskap; Ion Physics; jonfysik;

    Abstract : During recent decades, huge amount of radioactive waste has been dumped into the earth's surface environments. 129I (T1/2 = 15.6 My) is one of the radioactive products that has been produced through a variety of processes, including atomic weapon testing, reprocessing of nuclear fuel and nuclear accidents.
