Chernobyl 30 years on – Prof George Shaw talks to Notts TV and BBC Radio Nottingham

George Shaw, Professor of Environmental Science in the School of Biosciences at The University of Nottingham, talks to Mark Dennison at BBC Radio Nottingham about the work his team are doing to investigate the long term behaviour of radioactive isotopes in soils.

Experts from The University of Nottingham have been collecting samples from the Chernobyl Exclusion Zone for their research into the ‘Biogeochemical processes and radionuclide behaviour in soil-plant systems‘. The project is part of a broader study being conducted into the long-term environmental impacts of the Chernobyl accident.

Professor Shaw has also appeared on Notts TV to talk about the work they are doing.
