Video Simulation Of 3 Million Gallons Of Dumped Radioactive Water Spreading Through The Pacific Ocean

Responding to these concerns, ASR Limited, a marine consulting and research firm, has developed models to accurately predict the spread of the contaminated material.

"We're basing our prediction on daily condition updates. This information is then fed in to our model to predict how fast and how far the radioactivity will spread." Says ASR Scientist Laurent Lebreton who developed the model.

Fukushima Daiichi Radioactive Seawater Model April

On Monday, TEPCO began discharging 11,500 tons of contaminated water into the surrounding water – a serious development in the ongoing containment issues and release of radioactive material at TEPCO’s Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Plant.

Responding to these concerns, ASR Limited, a marine consulting and research firm, has developed models to accurately predict the spread of the contaminated material.

“We’re basing our prediction on daily condition updates. This information is then fed in to our model to predict how fast and how far the radioactivity will spread.” Says ASR Scientist Laurent Lebreton who developed the model.

You are aware there is a total of 187,189,915,062,857,142,857 gallons (187 quintillion gallons or 187,189,915,062 billion gallons) of water in the Pacific Ocean? Three million gallons will dillute.

What our government doesn't seem to be telling people is about the cumulative effect. You don't repeatedly get x rays because it's not good for you, when technicians give x rays they shield themselves. Add up the radiation in the air, the water, the rain which falls on the crops that animals graze on it goes into the milk and the meat and it all adds up. Now there is a great concern that contamination will spread well beyond Japan's shores affecting seafood overseas that is expected to concentrate in the upper food chain. Umm radioactive tuna
