Dispersion and surface deposition of Cs-137 over Eastern Japan (2-D animation)

WSPEEDI analysis on dispersion and surface deposition of Cs-137 over Eastern Japan has been improved by modification of deposition calculation scheme, better reproducing Cs-137 deposition pattern of airborne monitoring by MEXT. (Presentation at 2013 Annual Meeting of Atomic Energy Society of Japan)
