There is general international acceptance of the need to demonstrate that the environment
is protected from ionising radiation. In some countries requirements and guidelines for the protection
of non-human biota are already in place. As a consequence a number of models and approaches have
been proposed for the estimation of the exposure of non-human biota to ionising radiation. The IAEA
EMRAS programme’s Biota Working Group has conducted the most comprehensive intercomparison of
the predictions of these approaches to date. In this paper, we present an overview of the activities of the
Biota Working Group concentrating on its conclusions and recommendations.
