2003:14 Exchange processes at geosphere-biosphere interfaceCurrent SKB approach and example of coupled hydrological- ecological approach
The design of the repository for final disposal of spent nuclear fuel proposed by SKB is based on a multi barrier system, in which the geosphere and biosphere are the utmost barrier surrounding the engineer barriers. This report briefly reviews the current approach taken by SKB to account for hydrological and ecological processes at the geosphere-biosphere interface (GBI) and their future...

2021:21 Region-specific radioecological evaluation of accidental releases of radionuclides from ESS
SSM perspective Background To strengthen the material science research in Europe, the European Spallation Source (ESS) is being built in Lund in the southern part of Sweden. In the spallation process, neutrons are generated when the accelerated protons hit the tungsten target. In addition, a broad range of radioactive by-products are produced that differs from the fission products produced in...
