Elevated natural radionuclides in soils and stream sediments: pollution, spatial distribution, radiological hazards, and cancer risks in peri-urban Emure-Ekiti, southwest Nigeria
Abstract This study examines natural radionuclide contamination and health risks in the soils and sediments of Emure-Ekiti, Southwest Nigeria. For this study, a total of 20 samples (10 soils and 10 stream sediments) were collected at a depth of 10 cm. 238U, 232Th and 40 K were analyzed in the sample...
