Post subject: | Could Sr-90 Be Contributing To The Warmer Ocean Waters |
Could the continued leaking of radiation in Japan from the Fukushima disaster be contributing to the warmer waters in the Pacific Ocean? Quote: ...Sr-90 generates heat as it decays. Sr-90 is a soft metal. It can be present in dust from nuclear fission after detonation of nuclear weapons or a nuclear power plant accident. In its pure form, Sr-90 is a soft, shiny silver metal, but it quickly changes to yellow when exposed to air. Sr-90 can be inhaled, but ingestion in food and water is the greatest health concern. Once in the body, Sr-90 acts like calcium and is readily incorporated into bones and teeth, where it can cause cancers of the bone, bone marrow, and soft tissues around the bone. https://emergency.cdc.gov/radiation/isotopes/strontium.asp |
