21st August 2013 – Nikolaus Gantner, an ecotoxicologist affiliated with Trent University in Peterborough, Ont., said the challenge is to discover how much radiation is accumulating in migratory or long-lived fish, such as halibut, salmon and tuna.
“There are simply not enough measurements being done in water and biota on this side of the Pacific Ocean,” he said.

22nd August 2013 – Tepco “30,000,000,000,000 Bq of Cs-137 and Sr-90 leaked to the Pacific” / 30,000,000,000 Bq still leaking per day!
21st August 2013 – West Coast of North America to Be Hit Hard by Fukushima Radiation.
“Last year, scientists from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s (NOAA) Pacific Marine Environmental Laboratory and 3 scientists from the GEOMAR Research Center for Marine Geosciences showed that radiation on the West Coast of North America could end up being 10 times higher than in Japan.”
16th August 2013 – 3,800 Bq/liter of tritium detected in Pacific sea water near the Fukushima Nuclear Disaster site, one of the highest detection so far. Cesium 137 and 134 was also detected in significant amounts.
15th March 2012 – Test results provided by the Japanese Meteorological Research Institute, of 137Cs and 134Cs activities in the North Pacific Ocean, from sampled sea water during the period from April – May 2011.
Huge amounts of highly contaminated water has been following into the Pacific Ocean for over 28 months now, and it does not look like stopping soon!
6th August 2013 – Japan’s nuclear body calls radioactive groundwater leakage at Fukushima ‘emergency’.
1st August 2013 – 950,000,000,000 Bq/m3 of Cs-134/137 from reactor2 seawater trench shaft.
1st August 2013 – 39,000,000,000 Bq/m3 of Cs-134/137 measured from reactor3 seawater trench shaft.
1st August 2013 – 5,800 Bq/m3 of Strontium-90 measured in seawater “outside” of Fukushima nuclear plant port.
27th July 2013 – 750,000,000,000 Bq/m3 of all β nucleotides to include Sr-90 detected from seaside trench of reactor 2.
26th July 2013 – 2.35 Billion Bq/L of Cesium in trench in ground water that comes from Fukushima reactor 2 turbine building.
26 July 2013 – Fisheries station “Contaminated groundwater may well up a few Km offshore Fukushima.”
22th July 2013 – Tepco now admits radioactive water entering the sea at Fukushima, No. 1 Fisheries exec shocked by utility’s flip-flop on groundwater’s flow.
Shocked, really! Anyone who has taken any notice of what has been happening at the Fukushima Nuclear disaster site from the very beginning, would not be shocked. It has flowed into the Pacific Ocean for 28 months now. They use the word leak, to play it down. Their estimate is 450 tons a day of ground water flowing into the Pacific Ocean. This is probably a very conservative estimate! It’s a flood, not a leak! Look at the multiple huge detection reports here, under the Pacific Ocean heading, for some enlightenment of what is truly happening.
20th July 2013 – Maritime Safety Agency, “Sr-90 and Cs-137 density in seawater became the highest in past 40 years”
19th July 2013 – 36,000,000,000 Bq/m3 of Cs-134/137 measured from retained water of reactor 2 trench / Tritium density under analysis.
