Figures & data
Figure 1. A typical example representing a time profile of the radiation dose rate observed around the TF No.1 NPS in the early stage of the nuclear disaster. Dotted and broken lines represent the decreasing characteristics of I-131 and the averages of Cs-137 and Cs-134 which were assumed to be existed equally, respectively. The numbers of I, II, III in the figure represent the periods of the high radiation dose rates with rapid change, high radiation dose rates mainly by I-131 deposited on the ground surface, and those by Cs-137 and Cs-134 deposited, respectively.
