Abstract
Due to the Chernobyl power plant accident in 1986, a large amount of radioactive material was released from the reactor core. The weather conditions at that time, i.e. wind and precipitation, exposed Sweden to a significant deposition. The Swedish Defence Research Agency made in situ measurements at especially exposed locations during a period of six years, 1986 to 1992, to be able to follow the changes of the radioactive fallout. In this report results from follow-up measurements made in 2003, at a few of these locations, are presented.
