This paper presents the monitoring results for radionuclide concentrations in the environmental matrices before and after QNPP operation. The radionuclide con- centrations in vegetation, food, atmosphere, soil and littoral soil samples have been determined. After operation of QNPP, the mean values of 137Cs, Sr and H in water are 0.6, 4.9 mBq/L and 1.7 Bq/L, respectively; the mean values 90 3 of137Cs in soil and littoral soil are 3.5 and 2.7 Bq/kg, respectively; the mean values of137Cs in rice, green cabbage, meat, mullet, milk and tea are 0.033, 0.039, 0.081, 0.069, 0.018 and 0.62 Bq/kg, respectively; the mean values of 90 Sr in rice, green cabbage and tea are 0.081, 0.315 and 4.1 Bq/kg, respectively; gross β activity in fallout is 0.9 Bq·m-2·d-1. Compared with the data before QNPP’s operation, no significant difference has heen observed in the radioactivity of137Cs, Sr, H and the gross β activity in ambient environmental matrices from 1992 to 2001, and 90 3 there are only some fluctuations within the range of background.展开更多
