    Author: Mietelski JW, Macharski P, Jasińska M, Broda R.
    Journal: Biol Trace Elem Res; 1994; 43-45():715-23. PubMed ID: 7710892.
    Abstract:
    Partial results of a large survey of radioactive contamination in Polish forests are presented. All measurements were performed with low-background gamma spectrometers. The measurement method is briefly described. Activities of 137Cs, 134Cs, 125Sb, 106Ru, 144Ce, 154Eu, 155Eu, and 60Co in A0 and A1 layers of forest litter from all over Poland are determined. The geographical distribution of contamination as well as its origin is discussed. Nonuniform composition of the Chernobyl fallout over Poland is confirmed and documented.
