- Аннотация: In rural areas affected by Chernobyl, accelerated erosion has become a major source of particulate 137Cs in sediment load. The long-term dynamics of the activity concentration in eroded soil material transported from individual slope catchments can be better understood by exploring the 137Cs depth distribution in sediments deposited near cultivated fields. This study focuses on three cultivated slope catchments located in the Chernobyl-affected area of Central Russia. A depth incremental campaign was conducted within zones of sediment accumulation in 2022–2025. The behavior of radiocaesium associated with particles after the Chernobyl accident was controlled by the prompt implementation of remediation measures. Shortly after the accident, the values decreased by more than two times. The radionuclide flux then began to depend on soil erosion processes. Gradually, the thickness of the upper soil that had been eroded became large enough to allow soil material from deeper layers to be involved during ordinary plowing and led to a subsequent decrease in the 137Cs activity concentration. Given the decreasing snowmelt runoff and lack of increase in high-intensity rainfall in the 21st century, the activity concentration of 137Cs in slope runoff has remained quite stable. This phenomenon requires consideration of whether a physically based model for the transport of particulate radionuclides should be developed.
