Abstract: A quantitative analysis of the dynamics of ¹³⁷Cs bioavailability in soils contaminated following the Chernobyl NPP accident, based on a 6-year (1987–1992) observation period, and a dynamic model describing the behaviour of radiocaesium in meadow ecosystems are presented. It has been shown that the type of deposition and soil characteristics are main factors that significantly affect (up to five times) the changes in bioavailability of this radionuclide in the soil-plant system.
