| Özet |
| The natural radioactivity levels in soil and sediment samples of Fi{dotless}rti{dotless}na Valley have been determined. To our knowledge, there seems to be no information about radioactivity level in the Fi{dotless}rti{dotless}na Valley soils and sediments so far. For this reason, soil and sediment samples were collected along the Fi{dotless}rti{dotless}na Valley and analysis on the collected samples were carried out to determine 238U, 232Th, 40K and 137Cs radioisotopes using high purity germanium detector. The activity concentrations obtained for 226Ra, 214Pb, 214Bi, 228Ac, 208Tl, 40K and 137Cs are given in the unit of Bq/kg. The results have been compared with other radioactivity measurements in different country's soils and sediments. The radium equivalent activity (Raeq), the absorbed dose rate (D), the external hazard index (Hex), the annual gonadal dose equivalent (AGDE) and the annual effective dose equivalent (AEDE) were also calculated and compared with the international recommended values. © 2007 Elsevier Ltd.
