“…Because of this, we chose to report the results as average values of the concentrations recorded in the three layers. It is remarkable the higher 228 Ra concentrations in comparison to 226 Ra concentrations, being this finding in good agreement with data published by Linsalata et al (1991).…”

“…5 no secondary enrichment of U, 228 Ra is normally the dominant isotope in solution (Michel, 1991). Not surprising, Brazilian soils, normally contain 228 Ra/ 226 Ra activity ratio higher than one (Linsalata et al, 1991;Malanca et al, 1996;Roque and Ribeiro, 1997;de Moraes and Daltro, 2000;Carlos et al, 2004) and, in general, the observed 228 Ra/ 226 Ra activity concentration ratio follows this trend being higher than one as shown in Fig. 6.…”

“…These values vary considerably less between species than transfer coefficient values. The advantage of the CR approach is that values derived for one species could be applied to species for which there are no data (Johansen and Twining 2010;Linsalata et al 1991;Martin et al 1988;Higley 2010;Howard et al 2013a, b).…”

“…In most dose assessment models, separate TF would be used to predict transfer via each pathway before summing to obtain a final radionuclide concentration increase in the animal tissue (IAEA 1994). But, this method is not likely to be suitable when applied to wild animals because of the difficulty of obtaining the information required for each pathway (IAEA 2014b; Linsalata et al 1989Linsalata et al , 1991. Thus, the CR values are used as part of wildlife food-chain transfer models.…”
