Assessment Of The Effect Of Radionuclides From Malaysian Soils On Environmental Safety

Natural radioactive sources are the major contributor to human radiation exposure. The accumulation of radioactivity in surface soil is of concern since growing vegetation will take up radionuclides through roots and incorporate them into variou parts of the plants. Study of the level of radioact...
