Handling
Explanation of how the FEP is treated
Particle release/trapping is considered in the Biosphere Interaction Matrix (SKB R-10-37) and in the Radionuclide Model (RM). The handling is further described in the SR-Site Biosphere synthesis report, SKB TR-10-09, and in the ecosystem reports, SKB TR-10-01, -02 and -03.
