REL - Radioecology Laboratory
The role of the Radioecology Laboratory is to improve knowledge of the marine processes which determine the behaviour and fate of radionuclides and other contaminants in the marine environment, with a particular emphasis on the marine biosphere. Its activities lie in the field of marine radioecology and its applications to ecotoxicology and biogeochemistry. Its project work aims to assist and enhance capability in Member States (in particular developing countries) in using nuclear and isotopic techniques to understand and assess marine contaminant transfer and environmental processes.
