Abstract: There is now general acknowledgement that there is a requirement to demonstrate that species other than humans are protected from anthropogenic releases of radioactivity. A number of approaches have been developed for estimating the exposure of wildlife and some of these are being used to conduct regulatory assessments.

- Title: Wildlife and Chernobyl: The scientific evidence for minimal impacts

Abstract: The Fukushima disaster certainly will be followed by studies of the biological effects of the power plant’s radiation releases. Many studies of wildlife living in the contaminated Chernobyl zones show no major statistical effect on population health.Better data gathering and an archive of biological samples should be retained in order to resolve debates and replicate studies on the environmental effects of radiation.

- Title: Are radiosensitivity data derived from natural field conditions consistent with data from controlled exposures? A case study of Chernobyl wildlife chronically exposed to low dose rates

Keywords: Wildlife; Chernobyl Exclusion Zone; Chronic exposure; Species sensitivity distribution; Ecological risk assessment; Ionising radiation
Abstract: ► Discrepancy between controlled tests and Chernobyl effects data on wildlife was examined. ► We proposed a method to correct the dosimetry used for Chernobyl wildlife. ► Wildlife from the Chernobyl zone is more radiosensitive than in controlled situations. ► Field data sets outcoming from robust strategy are still needed to validate derived from controlled tests benchmarks.
