Figure 8 shows a RIMPUFF calculated footpr<strong>in</strong>t <strong>of</strong> deposited<br />

radioactivity from a 137 Cs plume from <strong>the</strong> Ignal<strong>in</strong>a NPP. Dur<strong>in</strong>g <strong>the</strong> plume<br />

passage, <strong>the</strong> deposition rate varies accord<strong>in</strong>g to <strong>the</strong> local surface<br />

characteristics (land, water, forest, urban, etc.).<br />
