Description:   Heavy metal and radionuclide accumulation in meadow voles and plants living on nickel/copper and uranium mine tailings was studied and the metal and radionuclide concentrations in the substrate, surface water, and plant material on the sites were determined.  Metal and radium-226 uptake by small mammals in relation to seasonal, spatial, age, sex, and environmental effects was discussed.
