Radionuclide Transport Above a Near-Surface Water Table: IV. Soil Migration and Crop Uptake of Chlorine-36 and Technetium-99, 1990 to 1993.

Reports on a four-year lysimeter study to determine the potential for upward soil migration and crop uptake of radioactive chlorine and technetium when they were introduced into an anoxic subsoil. Observation that both radionuclides migrated to the soil surface within the first year of the study; Indication that soil-plant transfer was also high.
