Trophic position and metabolic rate predict the long-term decay process of radioactive cesium in fish: a meta-analysis.
Understanding the long-term behavior of radionuclides in organisms is important for estimating possible associated risks to human beings and ecosystems. As radioactive cesium (¹³⁷Cs) can be accumulated in organisms and has a long physical half-life, it is very important to understand its long-term d...
