Abstract
Concentration values of various radionuclides in the environment of Nuratau region of Uzbekistan are presented. Natural waters, bottom sediments, soil, rock, plants, foodstuff and monthly atmospheric fallouts were chosen as samples. Descriptions of sample preparation, measurements, and spectrum processing techniques are given.
