Abstract
The temporal variability of I-129 in atmospheric samples taken between 1993 and 1999 in Seville (Spain) has been studied. Results show a good agreement with the history of the I-129 gaseous emissions of the reprocessing plants at Sellafield and La Hague. This suggests that these emissions are the origin of the I-129 present in the atmosphere in southern Spain. Apart from this, the similarity between the time evolution of gaseous I-129 and I-129/I-127 in 1998 would imply a fast chemical equilibration between I-129 from the reprocessing plants and stable iodine.
