概要 This paper compares the environmental plutonium that originated from the Fukushima Daiichi NPP accident, the 1945 detonation at Nagasaki and the global fallout that persists in Japan soils. The Nagasaki event contributed more Pu to the local environment than at FDNPP where the accident added scant new Pu of ~0.4%–2% in soils, ~0.3%–3% in earthworms, and ~1%–10% in wild boar. These low levels of Pu were difficult to measure even using the most highly sensitive accelerator mass spectrometry methods. Our study relied mainly on 241Pu/239Pu atom ratios as the typically-used Pu measures of 'activity concentrations' and the 240Pu/239Pu atom ratios did not resolve the FDNPP Pu from background in most samples collected five years after the event.
