Unit: kBq U235 equivalents

Description:

Valid on global and European scale. The fate and exposure model is based on the ExternE work (Dreicer et al. (1995)), describing the routine 14 atmospheric and liquid discharges in the French nuclear fuel cycle. Three additional radionucleides are modeled (data: UNSCEAR, 1993).
