Yeşilkanat, Cafer Mert; Kobya, Yaşar; Taşkın, Halim; Çevik, Uğur (Elsevier SCI LTD, 2015)In this study, compliance of geostatistical estimation methods is compared to ensure investigation and imaging natural Fon radiation using the minimum number of data. Artvin province, which has a quite hilly terrain and ... -
Evaluation and mapping of radionuclides in the terrestrial environment and health hazard due to soil radioactivity in Artvin, Turkey
Taşkın, Halim; Yeşilkanat, Cafer Mert; Kobya, Yaşar; Çevik, Uğur (Springer Heidelberg, 2018)In this study, the radiological characterization of top soil in the Artvin region, the assessment of relevant health risks, and obtaining the distribution of radiological parameters in soil of the region by means of the ... -
Evaluation of outdoor gamma dose rate and cancer risk in Artvin province, Turkey
Kobya, Yaşar; Taşkın, Halim; Yeşilkanat, Cafer Mert; Çevik, Uğur (Taylor & Francis Inc, 2015)In this study, we measured environmental outdoor gamma dose rates (terrestrial and cosmic) in 204 stations across the province of Artvin. The average outdoor gamma dose rate for the province of Artvin was found to be 174.81 ... -
Interpolated mapping and investigation of environmental radioactivity levels in soils and mushrooms in the Middle Black Sea Region of Turkey
Türkekul, İbrahim; Yeşilkanat, Cafer Mert; Çiriş, Ali; Kolemen, Uygur; Çevik, Uğur (Taylor & Francis Inc, 2018)The activity concentration of natural (U-238, Th-232, and K-40) and artificial (Cs-137) radionuclides was determined in 50 samples (obtained from the same station) from various species of mushrooms and soil collected from ... -
Radioactivity survey and risk assessment study for drinking water in the Artvin province, Turkey
Kobya, Yaşar; Taşkın, Halim; Yeşilkanat, Cafer Mert; Çevik, Uğur; Karahan, Gürsel; Çakır, Bakiye (Springer International Publishing, 2015)In this study, 117 spring water samples, collected across the Artvin province, were analyzed for gross alpha and gross beta radioactivity.
