Abstract

This national safety study of a repository in the Atlantic Ocean uses as much input from German research work as possible. It is based on a computer code IMPONADOR which can be run on a personal computer. It also introduces a new way of presenting information about radionuclide confinement to individual compartments to facilitate the understanding of release processes. The work is part of the international cooperation within the Seabed Working Group of the OECD/NEA.
