Abstract
Thermoluminescent dosimetry has been used to measure the radiation dose accumulated by Chironomidae larvae inhabiting a 19-m diameter pond contaminated with cesium-137. Small plastic tubes filled with lithium fluoride powder were arranged in parallel rows along the pond bottom. The accumulated gamma dose was greatest at the pond margin.Keywords
