- Simulated Radioactive Drift from Fukushima Nuclear Plant
This is a simulation from the Viennese Central Insitute for Meterology and Geodynamics showing the simulated plume of radioactive I-131 (radioiodine) coming from Japan's several damaged Fukushima nuclear power plant. The direction of the plume is both south and east. One source says the Viennese scientists are showing concentrations at [...] これは日本のいくつか破損して福島県原子力発電所から放射性のI - 131（放射性ヨウ素）のシミュレーション噴煙を示すMeterologyと地球深部のウィーン中央Insituteからシミュレーションです
- Fukushima fallout: the risks to health
Caesium-137 and iodine-131, which increase the risk of cancer, are the main threats to those in the area around the Fukushima power stationRadiation is being carried into the area around Fukushima by a mixture of radioactive products. The two main threats to human health come from caesium-137 and iodine-131.Caesium-137 can cause burns, acute radiation sickness and even death at high doses. It can contaminate food and water and, if ingested, gets distributed around the body, where it builds up in soft tissues, such as muscles. It has a half-life of about 30 years, meaning it takes that long for its radioactivity to fall by half. Over time, it is expelled from the body in urine.Iodine-131, if inhaled or swallowed, will concentrate in the thyroid gland where it can accumulate and cause cancer within a few years. Low doses can reduce the activity of the gland, and make it produce lower levels of hormones. The threat is more serious in children, who have more active thyroids.Officials have distributed potassium iodide pills to people in the exclusion zone around the plant as a prophylactic.; the pills saturate the thyroid with normal iodine, so it cannot absorb as much of the radioactive form. Iodine-131 has a half-life of only eight days, and so decays much more quickly than caesium-137.Japan earthquake and tsunamiNatural disasters and extreme weatherJapanNuclear powerEnergyIan Sampleguardian.co.uk © Guardian News & Media Limited 2011 | Use of this content is subject to our Terms & Conditions | More Feeds
