Non-human biota assessments for geological disposal facilities – a study of the key uncertainties and importance for dose estimates

摘要: A programme of work, commissioned within the BIOPROTA collaborative forum, has recently been undertaken to assess quantitative and qualitative elements uncertainty associated with non-human biota (NHB) dose assessment in relation potential long-term release radionuclides from a geological disposal facility (GDF). This was achieved through combining sensitivity knowledge quality analyses based on EC ERICA approach default parameters. The results project demonstrate that this combination approaches may be used identify important parameters could significant assessments impacts any radionuclide GDF NHB, for which there is low confidence. output intended provide information those need considered more detail site-specific assessments. Such should help users enhance their build greater confidence results.
