Application of a Mass Balance Partitioning Model of Ra-226, Pb-210 and Po-210 to Freshwater Lakes and Streams

The objectives of this thesis were: (1) to develop a mass balance partitioning model of the natural uranium-238 series comprising radium-226, lead-210 and polonium-210 and (2) to apply the model to estimate the source and fate of these radionuclides in freshwater lakes and streams. Samples were coll...
