Biological recipient monitoring at the coast – fish, soft bottom macro fauna, algae and birds
Last changed: 17 April 2023
Institute of Coastal Research, Department of Aquatic Recourses have ongoing recipient monitoring nearby the four nuclear power plants and outside the paper pulp industry Värö bruk.
Nuclear power
Our mission, given to us by the nuclear power industry, is to implement and report the biological recipient monitoring program. We also collects biological material from both land and sea for a radio ecology monitoring program under the responsibility of the Swedish Radiation Safety Authority (SSM).
Results
Spanning a period of almost fifty years the biological monitoring at the nuclear power plants has resulted in a big number of national and international reports. Results are summarized in the annual reports. They are the basis for the power plants' environmental reports to the county administrative boards. Every five years the results are reported in a more extensive and profound way.
