5. Conclusion

The effect of the landscape indication permits a reliable inter-component cross-identification within the landscape. Thus, the landscape approach to the evaluation the criticality indexes can be used for the radioecological evaluations, even if the environmental characteristics of the territory affected are limited or non-reliable. The approach seems to be useful also in the general ecotoxicology, as the behaviour characteristics of any pollutant of interest can be easily adopted.
