摘要: Abstract Nuclear accidents lead to widespread radioactive contamination of ecosystems and related ecosystem services, with potentially serious consequences for human well-being. Based on an initial exploratory analysis peer-reviewed articles Chernobyl Fukushima, we identified papers which measured increased Cs-137 levels in provisioning services. We used a standardized review-protocol assess (1) whether science provides sufficient data density spatial coverage provide coherent comprehensive map the global impacts nuclear services; (2) such are reported reproducible way; (3) how different safety thresholds affect availability food fodder consumption. approximately 3000 articles, 121 publications that Caesium-137 food, wood. found mapping services requires considerable increase assessments, including assessment existing grey literature. Assessments should follow protocol, providing consistent information sampling location identification There be critical dialogue maximum allowable radiation safe appropriation
