Abstract
Following the Palomares accident, 1966, a land monitoring program has been running up to now. The study of the possible transfer of the residual transuranics contamination on land to the marine environment began in 1986, under a project sponsored by CEE. This paper presents the use of artificial and natural radionuclides as valuable tools for the evaluation of the possible pathways by which the transfer to Mediterranean sea could occur.
