UNSCEAR 2020/2021 Report (2/8): Outline of Assessment of Public Exposure Doses

For ease of comparison with the UNSCEAR 2013 Report, dose estimates in the UNSCEAR 2020/2021 Report have been made for the same age groups and the same dosimetric endpoints. Concrete conditions are as shown above.

Dose assessment was conducted based on actual measurement data, while reflecting the latest scientific knowledge and progress that were published after the publication of the UNSCEAR 2013 Report up to the end of 2019 (p.194 of Vol. 1. “UNSCEAR 2020/2021 Report (3/8) Update from the UNSCEAR 2013 Report upon Assessing Public Exposure Doses”).
