Biodistribution of radionuclides in reindeer from Vågå, Norway
Nikouee, Kaveh (Master thesis, 2021)Purpose: To characterize the biodistribution and internal exposure of ChNPP Cs-137 and the naturally occurring Po-210 in semi-domesticated reindeer in southern Norway. Materials and method: Semi-domesticated reindeer ... -
Deponering och rotupptag av 238U, 232Th, 226Ra och 228Ra i bär och tillhörande bladverk från områden med förhöjda nivåer av naturligt förekommande radioaktivitet
Ohlin, Carina Elin Sophie (Master thesis, 2021)Naturliga radionuklider förekommer med varierande koncentrationer i jordmånen och kan överföras till vegetation genom rotupptag eller deponering. Överföringen estimeras vanligen genom transferfaktorn, en väletablerad ... -
Distribution and mobility of 137Cs in soil from the cathcment area of Vefsna
Halvorsrud Rudshagen, Ragnhild (Master thesis, 2022)The primary source of 137Cs in Norway is the Chernobyl accident, and several decades after the accident, there is still a substantial amount in the environment. The area of Hattfjelldal, within the catchment area of the ... -
Equilibrium factor of radon progenies in Norwegian homes
Solvang, Monica Antonio Tamele (Master thesis, 2021)Several hundred deaths each year are caused by radon-induced lung cancer in Norway. Lung cancers are mainly caused by the inhalation of radon and alpha radiation from the airborne short-lived radon or progenies but not by ... -
Metal mixtures, assessing speciation models to predict uptake in Brown Trout (Salmo trutta)
Napast, Denis (Master thesis, 2018)Alum shale is an organic-rich rock which contains high concentrations of U, Ni, V, Mo, Co, Cu, Zn, As and other metals. These metals are released into the environment by human actives and rock weathering. Many different ... -
Speciation of key NORM nuclides in natural waters
Tryti, Johan (Master thesis, 2021)Naturally occurring radioactive materials are present everywhere in nature. These may cause harm to organisms. Therefore, it is important to know of their behaviour in the environment. The total concentration of an element ... -
The exposure of terrestrial biota to naturally occuring radiation and stable elements : case Orrefjell, a risk assessment
Maina, Peter Kariuki (Master thesis, 2018)Naturally occurring radioactive materials (NORM) can be found all over the world. Investigations of possible effects on humans and the environment have mostly focused on exploited sites like mines and their vicinity, while ... -
Trace metal speciation and uptake in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) in coastal water
Nymo, Malene Therese (Master thesis, 2020)Estuarine environments have a high risk of metal pollution due to the influx from rivers. Freshwater from rivers mixed with seawater in coastal areas gives varied and complex water chemistry. In the estuarine environment ...
