ABSTRACT

The dose loads on higher aquatic plants are determined and the ecological role of plant communities in distribution and migration of radionuclides in the basins is shown. The "critical zones" for characteristic types of phytocommunities are determined. It is noted that accumulation of radionuclides by macrophytes depends on species and ecological group.
