Abstract
To draw the balance of anthropogenic I-129 input into European soils, the concentrations of I-129 and I-127 in seven soils from Lower Saxony were analyzed down to a depth of 250 cm. In comparison with pre-nuclear soils and Ukrainian soils, we detected a significant anthropogenic input of I-129. Considering the different time periods for the input of I-129 and I-127 it was possible to assess the dynamics of sorption processes which dominate migration and accumulation. Anthropogenic I-129 was successfully used as a tracer for a clarification of the migration processes of trace elements in soils.
