Global risk from the atmospheric dispersion of radionuclides by nuclear power plant accidents in the coming decades

We estimate the global risk from the release and atmospheric dispersion of radionuclides from nuclear power plant accidents using the EMAC atmospheric chemistry–general circulation model. We included all nuclear reactors that are currently operational, under construction and planned or proposed. We...
