Radiation Protection of Wildlife: Modelling the Exposure and Effects: Joint Summary Report of Working Groups 8 and 9 (MODARIA I) and Working Group 5 (MODARIA II). Modelling and Data for Radiological Impact Assessments (MODARIA) Programme

    Research outputpeer-review

    Abstract

    In recent years there has been a rapid development in models and approaches to assess whether the environment (or wildlife) is protected from releases of radioactive material. Through the Environmental Modelling for Radiation Safety (EMRAS and EMRAS II) and Modelling and Data for Radiological Impact Assessments (MODARIA I and MODARIA II) programmes, the IAEA has facilitated knowledge sharing on this topic, including through model intercomparison, testing and development. In this publication, a summary of the activities of the MODARIA I Working Group 8 (WG8) and Working Group 9 (WG9), along with MODARIA II Working Group 5 (WG5) is presented considering the estimation of the radiation exposure of wildlife and population effects modelling.
