Abstract
The initial distribution of radionuclides of Chernobyl fallout are exa mined in different soil fractions, which reflect a dependence on the s oil-particle distribution of the soils and on the type of fallout. A n onlinear dependence exists between the weight of a given fraction and its contribution to the overall activity of the soil, the radionuclide enrichment of soil fractions of < 0.05 mm and > 0.5 mm, and the impov erishment of fractions of small and medium sand, which is most pronoun ced with fuel pollution.
