  1. IAEA EMRAS Biota working group Future (suggested) plans

  2. Potential areas of interest • ICRP interaction • New scenarios • Methodology • Improving parameter values • Link to wider ‘EMRAS II’

  3. ICRP • Committee 4 discussions • Comparison and doses to humans and biota planned in PROTECT (BWG participation)

  4. New scenarios • Will consider in next 6 months • Focused on current issues (planned and existing exposures) • Likely to included less studied radionuclides • Two initial proposals • U mining (link with NORM group – available scenario?) • Radioactive waste disposal

  5. Methodology • Interface environments (eg estuaries) • Different situations (eg paddy fields) • Variability • Parameter distributions in approaches and how they are used • Radioecological sensitivity – does this need to be considered for biota??

  6. Improving parameter values • Transfer CR values • Sub task group within BWG • Core group plus invited extras with relevant data • Interaction with ICRP/IUR • Effects information (link with UNSCEAR activities) • Quality / Quantity of data • Use of ecological population modelling? • Possibly adapting current models to move from individuals to populations
