(13,685 posts)What you don't want to note is that Cs from Fukushima was identified off the coast last year.
So, given the immensity of the ocean, and the amount of Cs already found, it means massive quantities of Cs were released from Fukushima.
The models in the study seem to be based on the amount of Cs released pre-modelling, and do not take into account the fact that the releases are continuing 24/7. That means that there is about a 1000 day increase in the contamination.
And there is no study of strontium 90, which as far longer ionizing radionuclide than is the Cs137.
The conclusion from the study is that more testing must take place. Because they are not really sure what the hell is going to happen.
Anyone claiming to know what will happen is just nuts, eh?
