From the publication:
Norwegian-Russian research expeditions to the northern ocean areas show that radioactivity in the sea is low, and is lower than in other ocean areas. The radioactive substances found are primarily due to radioactive fallout produced by testing of nuclear weapons and the transport of radioactivity from the south by the ocean. Dumping has had little effect on general radioactivity content. Protection of the environment and future generations calls for continued efforts to curb radioactive pollution. Because several potential sources of pollution exist in the area the content of radioactive substances in the northern ocean areas should also be monitored in the future.*) Estimated date
