Radionuclide behaviour in the natural environment : science, implications and lessons for the nuclear industry /

Understanding radionuclide behaviour in the natural environment is essential to the sustainable development of the nuclear industry and key to assessing potential environmental risks reliably. Minimising those risks is essential to enhancing public confidence in nuclear technology. Scientific knowle...
