Estimation of cancer incidence in the male population of the Altai Krai affected by the Semipalatinsk nuclear test by A. O. Kovrigin, V. A. Lubennikov, I. B. Kolyado, I. V. Vikhlyanov, A. F. Lazarev, Ya. N. Shoikhet

“…The purpose of the study was to analyze the cancer incidence in the males born from 1932 to 1949 and living in rural settlements of the municipal districts of the altai Krai affected by the traces from semipalatinsk first nuclear test on august 29, 1949. Material and methods. an epidemiological retrospective cohort study was based on the analysis of anonymized data on newly diagnosed and morphologically verified cases of cancer in a male cohort for the period from 2007 to 2016. the study included a cohort fixed by the date of the first nuclear test with a total of 6383 males. in total, 633 cases were identified in the cohort with newly diagnosed and morphologically verified cancer. at the beginning of the study, all males were alive and had no previous diagnosis of cancer. …”

Assessment of the announced North Korean nuclear test using long-range atmospheric transport and dispersion modelling by Pieter De Meutter, Johan Camps, Andy Delcloo, Piet Termonia

“…Abstract On 6 January 2016, the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea announced to have conducted its fourth nuclear test. Analysis of the corresponding seismic waves from the Punggye-ri nuclear test site showed indeed that an underground man-made explosion took place, although the nuclear origin of the explosion needs confirmation. …”

Hydrological Behaviour of Tritium on the Former Semipalatinsk Nuclear Test Site (Kazakhstan) Determined using Stable Isotope Measurements by L. Pourcelot, L. Leon Vintro, P. I. Mitchell, M. Burkitbayev, B. Uralbekov, A. Bolatov, Y. Strilchuk, J-M Metivier, N. D. Priest

“…The potential tritium source for these lakes is residual concentration of tritium after former nuclear test in STS. The study provides evidence to show that export of tritium from underground nuclear test areas and tritium enrichment produced by evaporation are both important determinants of tritium concentrations in standing waters on the Semipalatinsk test site.…”
