individual doses from man-made radionuclides 
peak in 1986 at 14 pSv. The corresponding 
dose from naturally occurring radioactivity in 
fish flesh is about 10 pSv. 
Future work will include assessments of 
the radiological risk to the environment 
from radioactive substances in the Baltic 
Sea. Assessments of the radiological risks 
to marine biota including mammals, fish, 
molluscs, crustaceans, algae and plankton 
may be based on work carried out in the 
ERICA Project (2004-2007) using a software 
tool developed for that purpose.
