Scientists Discover New, Unexpected Way Fukushima Is Polluting the Ocean

By Tara MacIsaac

When cesium entered the ocean from the coastal Fukushima plant in 2011, currents spread it far and wide along the coast. What scientists didn’t realize until now is that the sand could act as a sponge, soaking up and storing the cesium.

Sand on the beaches, and even the sand below the surface—which is in contact with groundwater—has thus been contaminated with cesium.

Furthermore, new waves and tides have brought salty seawater in contact with this contaminated sand. The salt water acts as a solvent, releasing the cesium from the sand and washing it back into the ocean.


At least four nuclear plants in the United States will be vulnerable to storm surges by 2050

Fukushima contaminants found as far north as Alaska's Bering Strait

by Yereth Rosen

Those levels are far too low to pose a health concern, an important point for people living on the Bering Sea coast who subsist on food caught in the ocean.

Fukushima-linked radionuclides have been found as far away as Pacific waters off the U.S. West Coast, British Columbia and in the Gulf of Alaska.
