In the Miyagi and Fukushima prefectures of Japan, the wave was over 10 meters tall upon making landfall. “It’s quite a surprise to see such strong impacts so soon,” Mousseau says. They’ve had some unexpected results. Mousseau and his colleagues plan to capture barn swallows in Fukushima and outfit them with tiny dosimeters to measure the radiation doses each bird receives. “It’s urgent that we learn everything we can as soon as we can.”Grim as it is, the work Mousseau and Moller are doing in Fukushima has a scientific advantage over their research at Chernobyl. Barn swallows and wood warblers, among other species, are locally extinct.A year after Japan’s nuclear meltdown, scientists are investigating the effects of radiation exposure on birds, other wildlife, and plants.Studying birds and other wildlife in Fukushima cannot reverse the heartache or the losses caused by the tsunami and Daiichi power plant accident. The maps revealed radiation levels of more than 125 microsieverts per hour at 25 kilometers northwest of the plant, which means that people in these areas were exposed to the annual permissible dose within eight hours. On 18 June 2012 it became known that from 17 to 19 March 2011 in the days directly after the explosions, American military aircraft gathered radiation data in an area with a radius of 45 kilometers around the plant for the U.S. Department of Energy. It is considered that airborne caesium particles fell on the ocean surface, and sank as they were attached to the bodies of dead plankton. The earthquakes, its aftershocks, and the powerful tsunami it triggered led to the deaths and injuries of thousands of people. The actual bird tally during the July survey was about 30 percent lower than what they had predicted based on the normal biodiversity at each sampling point—that’s double the losses found in a comparable study at Chernobyl 20 years after the accident.
At each stop they measure the radiation level with a handheld device called a dosimeter.The Interior Department is fast-tracking efforts to strip away critical protections in the Migratory Bird Treaty Act.The team will in addition launch a detailed analysis of barn swallows, renowned for migrations that can take them from Japan to Indonesia, more than 3,500 miles away. A year after Japan’s nuclear meltdown, scientists are investigating the effects of radiation exposure on … The density of radioactive caesium is still being analyzed, according to the Agency. Alex Rosen, University Clinic Düsseldorf, Department of General Pediatrics Abstract The Tōhoku earthquake on March 11 th, 2011 led to multiple nuclear meltdowns in the reactors of the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant in Northern Japan. The survey result was announced in a symposium held on 20 November in Tokyo. In the map, different colors were used to show the level of radiation at locations one meter above the ground.These percentages represent estimated relative increases over the baseline rates and are not absolute risks for developing such cancers.
Mousseau and Moller are especially interested in migrating birds, which use enormous amounts of antioxidants during their annual journeys between summer and winter habitats. The scientists following transects across mountainsides and through valleys are conducting the first investigation into the disaster’s effects on plants and wildlife. Among their findings there: reduced numbers and longevity of birds; diminished fertility in male birds; smaller brains in some birds; and mutations in swallows and other species that indicate significant genetic damage. Moller's visit in 1991 was among the first by Western research scientists. Places further away were just below this maximum. From 18 to 30 April, JAMSTEC collected "marine snow", sub-millimeter particles made mostly of dead plankton and sand, off the coast of Kamchatka Peninsula, 2000 kilometers away from Fukushima, and off the coast of Ogasawara Islands, 1000 kilometers away, at 5000 meters below the ocean surface.
Amid the horrific loss of life and property, the researchers are buoyed by the hope that understanding how radioactive exposure affects various species over time will help scientists and policy makers assess the risks to ecosystems and humans, says Timothy Mousseau, a professor of biological sciences at University of South Carolina. The radioactive material injected into the environment by the 2011 Fukushima accident, the world’s second largest nuclear disaster after Chernobyl, has led to widespread consequences on human health. The Agency detected radioactive caesium in both locations, and from the ratio of caesium-137 and caesium-134 and other observations it was determined that it was from Fukushima I Nuclear Power Plant. “Fukushima offers us the opportunity to follow these organisms from the beginning.”This is Fukushima Province: scenic, rich in biodiversity, and heavily contaminated by what Japan’s former Prime Minister Naoto Kan calls “the invisible enemy.” Radioactive fallout has tainted hundreds of square miles north of Tokyo since March 11, 2011, when a magnitude 9.0 earthquake triggered a tsunami that caused three reactors at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant to melt down.Mousseau and his team will repeat their 2011 bird survey this coming summer, eventually evaluating the life history of 10 generations of birds in the Fukushima contaminated area.
