Wildlife Transfer Database

Objectives

The activities of the EMRAS II Working Group 5 were closely linked to an IAEA activity for launching an online Wildlife Transfer Parameter Database to be used as the source of information for the Technical Reports Series (TRS) Handbook on Wildlife Transfer Coefficients which is currently under preparation. This work is being done in collaboration with the International Union of Radioecology (IUR).

Members of the EMRAS II Working Group 5 used the online Wildlife Transfer Parameter Database for entries of data to support the activities of the group. Assistance with regard to entry of suitable data on concentration ratios was very much appreciated.
