• 2012:52 Technical Note, Shear movement of near-field rock due to large earthquakes

  assignment concentrates on the possible impact of large earthquakes on the shear deformation of large fractures in the repository volume. For this purpose a general review of some of SKB‘s top-level reports ... draw a generally consistent and to a considerable extend comprehensive picture of the potential impact on the repository integrity in case of the unlikely event of a large earthquake close to the repository...

• 2012:38 Technical Note, Radiological effects on non-human biota - initial review

  The focus of this review was SKB’s assessment of radiological effects on non-human biota in SR-Site according to present regulations and guidance from SSM and it was conducted by Karolina Stark at the ... biota, and the integration of human and non-human biota dose assessment. These gaps question the scientific soundness and quality of SR-Site. Clarifications are also needed regarding the use of the ERICA...

• 2018:21 Research on Resaturation of Bentonite Buffer

  Previous THM-modelling showed that the re-saturation time is strongly dependent on the hydraulic conditions in the near-field of the repository. Moreover, it is difficult to predict the degree of homogeneity ... illustration of homogeneity are important for SSM's judgement of the long-term safety of spent fuel repository. Results This report consists of three parts: (1) Research on Resaturation of Bentonite Buffer – Hydrological...

• 2022:08 Geophysical surveys on sub marine land- and rock slides and on alpine glaciers

  SSM perspective Background The future climate evolution and the impact it might have on a repository for radioactive waste is important when assessing the long-term safety. In a project funded by SSM (Holmlund ... wasting on the bottom of the deep trough through the Southern Quark were found. The genesis, timing and size of these deposits are important to resolve in order to assess their potential impact on nuclear...

• 2014:30 Modelling Approaches to C-14 in Soil-Plant Systems and in Aquatic Environments

  Substantial expertise on carbon biogeochemistry already exists in the fields of plant physiology and aquatic ecology and therefore is it beneficial to draw on this to identify the important issues. A paper ... programme was published in Radiocarbon Journal. Further studies on C-14 (including modelling, model inter-comparisons, and experimental work) have been on-going by individual BIOPROTA member organisations and continued...
