dc.description.abstractThe migration of radionuclides in tropical soils and groundwaters is subject to the same basic scientific principles as many other environments. However, the behaviour of radionuclides is also modified by many unique features of tropical systems including: climate and rainfall characteristics; soil mineralogy and properties; content and cycling of organic matter; and the presence of unique, potentially impacted environments (e.g., coral atolls in the case of weapons tests). Many tropical environments involve combinations of climatic and geochemical conditions not experienced elsewhere and are also subject to environmental modifications including urbanisation and climate change. These characteristics will influence the impact of potential radionuclide releases in the tropics. © 2012 Elsevier Ltd.en_AU
