Abstract
Radionuclides from the Chernobyl accident were released and dispersed during a limited period of time, but under different weather conditions. As a result the radionuclides were unevenly distributed on the ground. During the years the initial deposition has been altered at some locations by different processes, but remains relatively unchanged in others. Here we report on the current inhomogeneous radionuclide distribution, on both large- and small scales (1 cm2 – 10ths of km2), which on average varies a factor of 4.
