Radiation-Induced Processes of Adaptation

Abstract

This chapter presents the approximations, calculations and methods that require the use of statistical modelling. Special attention is devoted to the analysis of chemical pollution near a nuclear power plant which can induce cell damages or imitate the dependence of the distribution parameters on the average daily fallout. Eight topics will be discussed: Methods of approximation; Approximations of pea seeds distributions on the number of cells with abnormalities irradiated in the laboratory; Sample of the calculation of the synergic coefficient; Approximations of distributions for plantain seeds growing near a nuclear power plant; Analysis of the correlations of seed mortality (1 − S) and parameters of the plantain seed distributions on the numbers of proliferated and abnormal cells with contamination of chemical pollutions in soil; Statistical modelling of the occurrence frequency of cells with abnormalities in blood lymphocytes of individuals.
