Environmental transfer of radionuclides in a Sub-Saharan Africa setting (2020)
Thesis
Doroh, R. Environmental transfer of radionuclides in a Sub-Saharan Africa setting. (Thesis). University of Salford

In the last two decades, interest in the development of nuclear programmes in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) has increased. To ensure that the potential human and environmental ionising radiation exposure from nuclear developments within SSA can be adequat...

An innovative portable detector for the live-monitoring of radionuclides in small terrestrial animals
Thesis
Fawkes, R. (in press). An innovative portable detector for the live-monitoring of radionuclides in small terrestrial animals. (Thesis). University of Salford

Radionuclide measurements in wildlife are required to demonstrate that the environment is not significantly impacted by radioactivity. Determination of internal radionuclide activity concentrations often requires destructive sampling. Development of...

Measuring terrestrial wildlife external radiation exposure under field conditions
Thesis
Aramrun, P. (in press). Measuring terrestrial wildlife external radiation exposure under field conditions. (Thesis). University of Salford

This thesis presents the results of a 3-year project to develop methods for measuring external radiation exposure of free-ranging terrestrial animals under field conditions. An evaluation of available passive dosimeter technologies was undertaken and... Read More about Measuring terrestrial wildlife external radiation exposure under field conditions.
