The Japanese government launched the work of nuclear waste water on Thursday (August 24). Chinese experts estimate that the radioactive nuclear elements of Japanese nuclear wastewater will flow to the East China Sea in about one year.

According to the Beijing News, Japan's Tokyo Electric Power Corporation officially launched the work of nuclear waste water in the Fukushima first nuclear power plant at 1 pm on Thursday (Beijing time on Thursday, Beijing time).About 460 tons, lasting 17 days, a total of about 7,800 cubic meters of nuclear waste water discharged.

In 2021, Chen Xinxin, a researcher at the South China Sea Oceanic Research Institute of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and partners written by the Ocean Ring of the Ocean Ring will accelerate the spread of Fukushima's WASTE WATEN CIRCULALALATION) to analyze nuclear wastewater dischargeLater global diffusion path.

Chen updated on Wednesday (23rd) that after the Japanese nuclear wastewater was discharged, there will be three diffusion paths.After the nuclear waste water is discharged into the sea from Fukushima, it will first be affected by the strongest ocean current of the Pacific -the black tide, so its first diffusion path is: under the action of vortex, black tide return, and turbulent diffusion, to ChinaDonghai transportation should also be the fastest path that affects China.

Chen Xinxin said that there is not only a black tide around the East Coast of Japan, but also the "close tide" from the Kanshaga Peninsula along the Qiandao Islands.Due to the role of large -scale subtropical circulation, some nuclear waste water will be transferred to the low latitude section of the black tide by clockwise.The black tide of low latitudes passes through the Lvzon Strait in the north direction. Some of the water experience entering the South China Sea via the Lunzon Strait. This is the second path of diffusion.

He said that the third path is mainly that after the convergence of Black Tide and the close -ups in Fukushima, there will be no return parts to the east to the east, until the west coast of the United States, the easternmost side of the Pacific.Subsequently, the north -south splitter, the part of the south returned to the North equatorial flow.

Chen Xinxian pointed out that from the perspective of the diffusion path, Japan's nuclear wastewater will affect the South China Sea, the East China Sea, the Bohai Sea and the Yellow Sea.The North Pacific is a serious contaminated area.Through the ocean ring system, radioactive nuclear elements will spread to all oceans.The radioactive nuclear element will not only stay on the surface of the ocean. It can be said that the "three -dimensional three -dimensional" of the ocean will be polluted again.

Chen update estimates that according to the spread of nuclear wastewater in Japan, there are numerical simulation indicates that radioactive nuclear elements will reach the East China Sea in about one year.Based on the estimation of the data of the ocean, the radioactive nuclear elements transported eastward across the North Pacific to the West Coast of North America after five years.
