Figure 2

Variations in the total radiocesium concentrations (top) between May 2011 and March 2014, the 134Cs (middle) and 137Cs (bottom) concentrations between April 2012 and February 2014. The total Cs, 134Cs and 137Cs concentrations decreased significantly during the three years after the F1NPP accident; however, high concentrations exceeded the 100 Bq kg-1 interim limit for radiocesium in Japan were detected. All of the radiocesium data for the salmonids were from the information published by the Fisheries Agency of the Japanese Government (2014a) between May 2011 and March 2014.
