Perspectives in Forest Radioecology

Report of the Working Group on Measurement and Data

  • Chapter
Contaminated Forests

Part of the book series: NATO Science Series ((ASEN2,volume 58))

Abstract

During the NATO Advanced Research Workshop on “Contaminated Forests: Recent Developments in Risk Identification and Future Perspectives” a Working Group (WG) entitled “Measurements and Data” was conducted. At the end of the first session the participants of the Working Group selected three topics from a list to be discussed in more detail. The Working Group decided:

  • to work out recommendations for environmental sampling

  • to work out recommendations on how to share data, and

  • to rank radioecological processes in forest ecosystems by using a matrix method and applying the expert knowledge of the WG participants.
