Temporal Trend in the Transfer of Sellafield-Derived 14 C into Different Size Fractions of the Carbonate Component of NE Irish Sea Sediment
Open AccessGraham K P Muir, Gordon T Cook et al.ARTICLERadiocarbon2015References: 24
From 1994 onwards, radiocarbon discharges from the Sellafield nuclear fuel reprocessing plant have been made largely to the northeast Irish Sea. They represent the largest contributor to UK and European populations of the collective dose commitment derived from the entire nuclear industry discharges. Consequently, it is important to understand the long-term fate of 14 C in the marine environment. Research undertaken in 2000 suggested that the car…
Anomalous 14 C Enrichments in the Eastern UK Coastal Environment
Open AccessGraham K P Muir, Gordon Cook et al.ARTICLERadiocarbon2015Cited by: 1References: 16
During the period from 1995 to 2011, radiocarbon measurements from the coast around Hartlepool in NE England have revealed anomalous enrichments in seawater, sediment, and marine biota. These cannot be explained on the basis of atomic weapons testing or authorized nuclear industry discharges, including those from the nearby advanced gas-cooled reactor. Enhanced 14 C-specific activities have also been observed since 2005 in biota during routine mo…
Transport of Sellafield-Derived 14 C from the Irish Sea through the North Channel
Open AccessPauline Gulliver, Gordon Cook et al.ARTICLERadiocarbon2001Cited by: 3References: 27
Since the early 1950s, the Sellafield nuclear fuel reprocessing plant in Northwest England has released radiocarbon into the Irish Sea in a mainly inorganic form as part of its authorized liquid effluent discharge. In contrast to the trend in which the activities of most radionuclides in the Sellafield liquid effluent have decreased substantially, 14 C discharges have increased since 1994–95. This has largely been due to a policy change favoring …
Radiocarbon Age Profiles and Size Dependency of Mixing in Northeast Atlantic Sediments
Open AccessLouise Brown, Gordon Cook et al.ARTICLERadiocarbon2001Cited by: 2References: 23
In recent years, the most common technique for radiocarbon dating of deep-ocean sediments has been accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS) analysis of hand-picked planktonic foraminifera (forams). Some studies have exposed age offsets between different sediment size fractions from the same depth within a core and this has important implications when establishing a chronological framework for palaeoceanographic records associated with a particular sed…
