Radioactive decay chains from (a) 226Ra and (b) 228Ra.
Radioactive decay chains from (a) 226Ra and (b) 228Ra.

The results of simulation as a function of time of the accumulated doses given by radioactive nuclei 226Ra to 214Po (indicated by 226Ra), 210Pb to 206Pb (indicated by 210Pb), 228Ra and 228Ac (indicated by 228Ra), and 228Th to 208Pb (indicated by 228Th). The values are calculated for HPD1621R03, taken at a sea-floor hydrothermal area at depth of 1495 m of Hatoma Knoll, Okinawa Trough, the ESR age of which was estimated to be 33 years while the bulk concentrations of 226Ra and 228Ra are estimated to be 17.0 Bq/g and 59.4 Bq/g, respectively.
