本文报告了国际放射生态学联盟于 2015 年 11 月组织的共识研讨会的成果。该研讨会聚集了由 30 名科学家组成的学术界不同群体，讨论辐射对人口和生态系统的生态影响，这一影响仍然存在争议。受切尔诺贝利和福岛灾难对环境的意外污染的刺激，人们对制定环境辐射防护框架的兴趣日益浓厚。在各种实验室和现场环境中进行的科学研究提高了我们对电离辐射对环境影响的了解。然而，此类研究的结果有时显得矛盾，并且对于风险评估的影响存在分歧。因此，研讨会讨论的重点是可能导致对结果产生不同解释的问题，例如实验室与现场方法、生物体与种群和生态系统推理策略、剂量估计方法及其在长期暴露条件下的意义。参与的科学家来自各个学科和研究领域，也超越了传统的放射生态学界，成功地形成了一种旨在理解差异的建设性精神。通过讨论，专家组得出了七项有关辐射环境保护的共识声明，并补充了一些建议。这些陈述中的每一项都进行了背景讨论，以促进未来研究的方向和整合，其结果应就辐射的生态影响达成更好的共识，并巩固有效的环境放射防护的适当方法。
This paper reports the output of a consensus symposium organized by the International Union of Radioecology in November 2015. The symposium gathered an academically diverse group of 30 scientists to consider the still debated ecological impact of radiation on populations and ecosystems. Stimulated by the Chernobyl and Fukushima disasters’ accidental contamination of the environment, there is increasing interest in developing environmental radiation protection frameworks. Scientific research conducted in a variety of laboratory and field settings has improved our knowledge of the effects of ionizing radiation on the environment. However, the results from such studies sometimes appear contradictory and there is disagreement about the implications for risk assessment. The Symposium discussions therefore focused on issues that might lead to different interpretations of the results, such as laboratory versus field approaches, organism versus population and ecosystemic inference strategies, dose estimation approaches and their significance under chronic exposure conditions. The participating scientists, from across the spectrum of disciplines and research areas, extending also beyond the traditional radioecology community, successfully developed a constructive spirit directed at understanding discrepancies. From the discussions, the group has derived seven consensus statements related to environmental protection against radiation, which are supplemented with some recommendations. Each of these statements is contextualized and discussed in view of contributing to the orientation and integration of future research, the results of which should yield better consensus on the ecological impact of radiation and consolidate suitable approaches for efficient radiological protection of the environment.
