The Independent: Radioactive remnants of nuclear bomb tests found at deepest
point in world's oceans
Marine organisms increase spread of carbon and use it to build molecules within their cells.
Radioactive carbon released into the atmosphere from nuclear bomb tests has reached the deepest parts of the ocean, a study has revealed.
Researchers found the first evidence of radioactive carbon from nuclear bomb testing in muscle tissues of crustaceans that inhabit Earth’s ocean trenches, including the Mariana Trench, home to the deepest spot in the ocean.
Organisms at the ocean surface have incorporated “bomb carbon” into the molecules that make up their bodies since the late 1950s, the discovered.
