First Order Stochastic Modelling of Nuclear Effluent Flux in the
Oceans of the British Isles Eoghan Joseph Totten University of
California, Berkeley & Imperial College London Slide 2
Background & Motivation > 10 nuclear fission sites on
British mainland United Kingdom population density: 255.km -2
Comparison: California, 95 km -2 ; Massachusetts, 331.3km -2
Ireland: 65km -2 Hypothesis 1) Significant exposure to (above
ambient) radiation: cancer incidence correlation Hypothesis 2)
Corollary feedback/external mechanisms/system drivers Current
deficit renders Irish Sea as material sink Slide 3 File to run :
