- The Fukushima Daï-ichi nuclear power plant accident led to the release of radioactive cesium (Cs) into the marine environment, affecting local marine life and food chains.
- Cs accumulates in marine organisms and is recycled in the food web, impacting species' depuration rates, particularly in demersal fish that are confined to coastlines near the contamination source.
- The study proposes a model to illustrate how different fish species (demersal vs pelagic) experience varying levels of contamination based on their mobility and feeding habits, utilizing observational data post-accident.
