摘要

Soil-soil solution distribution coefficients (Kd) for 137Cs in soils (Andosol, Fluvisol, and Cambisol) from two different temperature regions in Japan were measured. The results showed that the Kd values did not differ significantly between warmer and cooler regions for Fluvisol and Cambisol samples, while Andosol samples showed a small but statistically significant regional difference (geometric means: 4.7 × 103 L kg–1 in the cooler region and 2.0 × 103 L kg–1 in the warmer region). Correlation analysis revealed that Kd was mainly affected by exchangeable K, water content, and pH, suggesting that site-specific soil characteristics have a greater impact on radiocesium mobility than temperature differences.
