Modelling the effects of ionising radiation on a vole population from the Chernobyl Red forest in an ecological context

Abstract: HighlightsMigration is effective in compensating for vole deaths at high levels of radiation exposure.Long term effects simulated include a small historic dose component.Adaptation can account for low dose radio-hypersensitivity and increased radio-resistance.Current radiation dose assessment benchmarks are protective for the modelled vole population.

“…The information described in previous sections was synthesized into a model for voles inhabiting the Chernobyl Red Forest area at the time of the Chernobyl reactor accident in 1986. Full details are available in our previous publication [9], so the results are only summarized here. The model considers an inner contaminated region, an intermediate partly contaminated region and a non-contaminated outer region labelled i = 1-3.…”
