JP Gov’s data shows Sr-90 and Cs-137 density in rain and dust went over 1000 % of Chernobyl accident time after 311

Strontium-90 and Cesium-137 density in rain and dust increased over 1,000% of when Chernobyl accident took place, according to nuclear regulatory agency.

This is based on their data base but back data of each year is not attached.

The graphs below are titled as “Change of Sr-90 and Cs-137 density in Japanese rain and dust over the years (1974-2012)”. The specific location is not mentioned.

Their report says the monthly fallout of Sr-90 and Cs-137 had been decreasing since they banned atmospheric nuclear test in 1981.

However it increased in 1986 due to Chernobyl accident. It went back to the decreasing trend since then, but they observed the increase after 311 again.

 

Their data reads the highest density of Sr-90 was approx. 10 MBq/km2・month in 1986. However it jumped up to nearly 1,000 MBq/km2・month in 2011.

Also regarding Cs-137 density, it reached approx. 500 MBq/km2・month in 1986 but it went over 10,000 MBq/km2・month in 2011.

Les données NRA montrent qu’après le 11-3 la radioactivité des pluies et poussières en Sr 90 et Cs 137 a été à plus de 1000 fois celle de Tchernobyl

 

Selon l’agence japonaise d’état de règlementation du nucléaire (NRA), la radioactivité des pluies et des poussières en strontium 90 et en césium 137 a grimpé à plus de 1000 % de celle de l’accident de Tchernobyl.

Ceci est basé sur leurs données mais le détail de chaque année n’est pas fourni.
Les graphiques ci-dessous sont titrés “Variation de la radioactivité des pluies et poussières japonaises en Sr 90 et Cs 137 sur la période 1974-2012”. Les endroits exacts des mesures ne sont pas précisés.
Leur rapport dit que les retombées mensuelles en Sr 90 et Cs 137 diminuaient depuis l’interdiction des essais nucléaires aériens de 1981, puis elles ont augmenté en 1986 à cause de l’accident de Tchernobyl. La tendance était revenue à la diminution ensuite, jusqu’à l’augmentation observée après mars 2011.

Leurs données établissent un record de radioactivité en Sr 90 d’environ 10 MBq/km² par mois en 1986.
Il monte à près de 1 000 MBq/km² par mois en 2011.
Concernant celle du Cs 137, elle a atteint environ 500 MBq/km² par mois en 1986 et plus de 10 000 en 2011.

About this site

This website updates the latest news about the Fukushima nuclear plant and also archives the past news from 2011. Because it's always updated and added live, articles, categories and the tags are not necessarily fitted in the latest format.
I am the writer of this website. About page remains in 2014. This is because my memory about 311 was clearer than now, 2023, and I think it can have a historical value. Now I'm living in Romania with 3 cats as an independent data scientist.
Actually, nothing has progressed in the plant since 2011. We still don't even know what is going on inside. They must keep cooling the crippled reactors by water, but additionally groundwater keeps flowing into the reactor buildings from the broken parts. This is why highly contaminated water is always produced more than it can circulate. Tepco is planning to officially discharge this water to the Pacific but Tritium is still remaining in it. They dilute this with seawater so that it is legally safe, but scientifically the same amount of radioactive tritium is contained. They say it is safe to discharge, but none of them have drunk it.
