“…Indeed, Miljević et al (2000) found no isotopic equilibrium between the local rainfall and the surrounding water vapour, reflecting fundamentally the re-emission into the atmosphere by evapotranspiration of the deposited HTO, together with exchange with atmospheric water vapour due to high relative humidity and little or null rainfall. Momoshima et al (2000) too found that the tritium levels of atmospheric water vapour are greater than those of the rainfall.…”

“…For this reason, those literature values are considerably lower than those of the present study. Miljević et al (2000) reported TFWT activities in plant samples (grass and pine needles) in the range 875-1343 Bq/L, whereas Matsuura et al (1995) found for pine needles collected in the proximities of the Jaeri Tokai nuclear complex activity levels in the range 1.4-31 Bq/L. With respect to the freshwater TFWT CF's, in fish exposed to tritiated water (Kirchman et al, 1979) the values found were in the range 0.035-0.88, according to the species.…”

“…The RA reactor was placed in the "long term shutdown" condition in April 1986 in order to reconstruct and improve practically all the vital reactor systems. Since then, during the regular inspection of the fuel channels, tritium in HTO form can be released to the environment and increase concentration in precipitation (Miljević et al 2000;Janković and Miljević 2008 ).…”

The paper presents results of a long-term investigations of tritium activity concentrations in precipitation and radiocesium activity concentrations in ground level air in Belgrade, Serbia. Samples were collected at three locations in Belgrade (Meteorological Station of Belgrade MS at Zeleno Brdo (ZB), Meteorological Station MS Usek (USEK), and Vinča Institute of Nuclear Sciences (VINS)). Presented data cover the period 1985-1997. Significantly higher tritium levels were measured in samples in VINS compared with off-site location, while the impact of research reactor for 137 Cs was not detected. It was found that the value of the symmetrical index n is higher for VINS in case of tritium, compared to other locations, which is in accordance with the fact that the highest average monthly concentrations of tritium were obtained in the samples from the cited place. Although the highest value of index n in case of 137 Cs was also obtained for VINS, average monthly concentrations of 137 Cs in ground level air for this location were the lowest. The 137 Cs concentration in the ground level air is described by a kinetic equation of the first order and provides a good description of the time changes in these concentrations.

“…Moreover, in the view of the existence of nuclear power plants in the vicinity of the Republic of Serbia (Krsko on the Sava River) and number of nuclear power plants on the Danube and of possible malicious nuclear weapons testing, it is necessary to monitor radioactivity in water, especially tritium. Systematic environmental monitoring of tritium began in 1976, through sampling and measurements of surface waters and precipitation [7].…”

The main purpose of this paper was to determine tritium concentration in surface water samples, using liquid scintillation counting. Surface water samples were collected from the Mlaka creek on three different locations near PC "Nuclear Facilities of Serbia". The importance of tritium monitoring around nuclear reactors and nuclear waste storages is due to prevention of possible internal exposure through ingestion of drinking waters with elevated levels of tritium from existing water supply in their nearby. Tritium concentrations that have been measured during the period from 2017 to 2022 ranged from less than 2 Bq/L to 103 Bq/L.
