Abstract

This statement paper focusses on research needs with respect to the effects of ionising radiation on the environment (identified needs for human focussed radiological protection research can be found elsewhere (Février et al., 2014; Salomaa, 2016; ICRP, 2017)). We emphasise the potential for learning from natural laboratories (namely field sites contaminated by the Chernobyl and Fukushima accidents), taking into account advances from recent co-ordinated research programmes TREE (https://tree.ceh.ac.uk/) and STAR-COMETa (https:// radioecology-exchange.org/).
