SummaryFor the determination of plutonium isotopes in environmental samples, chemical separation of plutonium together with a suitable sample preparation method for measurement is necessary. In this work, a combined method for the determination ofThe use of this approach gives the advantage of combining the strengths of both radiometric and mass spectrometric methods for plutonium determination after chemical separation from environmental samples.Results from the measurement of reference materials and from sediment samples from the Irish Sea are presented and the applied methods are compared with respect to their detection limits for the investigated nuclides.

The sandstone beds which skirt the eastern border of Wales, and stretch from a little south-west of the town of Oswestry to near the Point of Ayr, on the shores of the Irish Sea, a distance of upwards of 40 miles in a direct line, have for several years past been a source of perplexity to those who have investigated their peculiarities, and who have been interested in arriving at a determination of their true age and geological horizon.

AbstractA free-swimming thornback ray Raja clavata specimen demonstrating significant morphological abnormality is reported, captured by beam trawl in the Irish Sea off north Wales, UK. The anterior sections of both pectoral fins were separated from the head section for a length of approximately 140 mm extending from the rostrum tip to a point posterior of the spiracles, along with abnormal morphology of the gill slits. This phenomenon has been observed elsewhere but is the first documented example of this abnormality in the eastern Irish Sea, despite widespread targeting of the species across the region by commercial and recreational fishers. Possible causes and consequences of the observed abnormality are discussed.
