Environmental Change in Post-Closure Safety Assessment of Solid Radioactive Waste Repositories

Describes the work of the Reference Models for Waste Disposal Working Group, one of nine set up as part of programme entitled Environmental Modelling for Radiation Safety (EMRAS II), which concentrated on the improvement of environmental transfer models and the development of reference approaches to estimate the radiological impacts arising from radionuclides in the environment.

This publication describes the work of the Reference Models for Waste Disposal Working Group, one of nine set up as part of programme entitled Environmental Modelling for Radiation Safety (EMRAS II), which concentrated on the improvement of environmental transfer models and the development of reference approaches to estimate the radiological impacts on humans, as well as on flora and fauna, arising from radionuclides in the environment.
