Abundance of birds in Fukushima as judged from Chernobyl

  • Title: Abundance of birds in Fukushima as judged from Chernobyl

Author: Møller, Anders Pape / Hagiwara, Atsushi / Matsui, Shin / Kasahara, Satoe / Kawatsu, Kencho / Nishiumi, Isao / Suzuki, Hiroyuki / (…) / Mousseau, Timothy A.

Reference: Environmental Pollution, 164, p.36-39, May 2012

doi: http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.envpol.2012.01.008

Keywords: Birds, Chronic radiation, Population trends, Radiation

Abstract: The effects of radiation on abundance of common birds in Fukushima can be assessed from the effects of radiation in Chernobyl. Abundance of birds was negatively related to radiation, with a significant difference between Fukushima and Chernobyl. Analysis of 14 species common to the two areas revealed a negative effect of radiation on abundance, differing between areas and species.

Keywords:

Abstract: A prospective cohort study was carried out to investigate the health state of Belarusian children suffering from the Chernobyl accident. The main group consisted of 133 children permanently residing in the radioactively contaminated territories, while the control group was 186 children permanently residing in the territories with natural radiation background.

Keywords:

Abstract: The purpose of this report is to provide an up-to-date evaluation of the environmental effects of the 26 April 1986 accident at the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant. Even though it is now nearly 20 years after the accident and substantial monies have been spent on such evaluations, there are still many conflicting reports and rumours.

Determinants of interspecific variation in population declines of birds after exposure to radiation at Chernobyl

  • Title: Determinants of interspecific variation in population declines of birds after exposure to radiation at Chernobyl

Author: A. P. Møller and T. A. Mousseau

Reference: Journal of Applied Ecology 2007

doi:10.1111/j.1365-2664.2007.01353.x

Keywords: carotenoids, dispersal, maternal effects, migration, sexual coloration.

Abstract: Radiation can reduce antioxidant levels dramatically because of the use of antioxidants to eliminate free radicals produced in the presence of radiation. Antioxidants are crucial biochemicals for elimination of free radicals, which can cause permanent damage to DNA and other molecules.
