More work required to erase radiation in Fukushima
By Rebekah Moan
Wednesday, December 4 | 10:50 a.m.-11:00 a.m. | SSK11-03 | Room S405ABThe amount of radiation in Fukushima City, Japan, after the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant accident in 2011 has decreased due to the removal of contaminated surface soil and tree leaves. However, some radiation still remains, and more effort to remove contaminated materials is necessary, researchers will report in this Wednesday session.
