《环境放射性杂志》为发表关于自然系统中放射性发生的任何方面的原始研究或评论论文提供了一个连贯的国际论坛。有关的主题领域从环境放射性核素作为自然过程的机械或时间尺度示踪剂的应用到评价环境放射性的放射生态或放射学影响。论文涉及自然产生的核素或人类通过核武器制造和试验、能源生产、燃料循环技术等产生和释放的核素。欢迎关于海洋、沉积物、河流、湖泊、地下水、土壤、大气和生物圈所有部门的放射性的报告，但这些报告不应只是监测性质，除非数据特别具有创新性。研究论文也包括在内，这些论文通过实验或理论方法，旨在更好地了解环境放射性核素的行为、转移和分布。特别鼓励预测模型。如果年代测定方法具有明确的地球物理或地球化学意义，则可接受。对实验方法的描述应具有高度的原创性，并应特别与确定低水平的环境活动有关。该杂志为客观、公开和同行评议的出版物提供了一种工具，并讨论了环境放射性中更具争议的方面，包括对健康影响的评估、排放控制标准和最终处置核废料的选择。有关的丛书《环境中的放射性》也鼓励在这一领域出版，以补充该期刊的报道。

The Journal of Environmental Radioactivity provides a coherent international forum for publication of original research or review papers on any aspect of the occurrence of radioactivity in natural systems.Relevant subject areas range from applications of environmental radionuclides as mechanistic or timescale tracers of natural processes to assessments of the radioecological or radiological effects of ambient radioactivity. Papers deal with naturally occurring nuclides or with those created and released by man through nuclear weapons manufacture and testing, energy production, fuel-cycle technology, etc. Reports on radioactivity in the oceans, sediments, rivers, lakes, groundwaters, soils, atmosphere and all divisions of the biosphere are welcomed, but these should not simply be of a monitoring nature unless the data are particularly innovative.Research papers are also included which, by either experimental or theoretical approaches, aim towards an improved understanding of the behaviour, transfer and distribution of environmental radionuclides. Predictive modelling is particularly encouraged. Papers on dating methods are acceptable if they have clear geophysical or geochemical significance. Descriptions of experimental methods should be both highly original and specifically related to determination of low-level environmental activities.The journal provides a vehicle for objective, open and peer-reviewed publication and discussion of the more controversial aspects of environmental radioactivity, including assessments of health effects, criteria for discharge control and options for ultimate disposal of nuclear wastes.Publication in this field is also encouraged in the related book series Radioactivity in the Environment designed to complement the coverage of the journal.
