Abstract
SIGURNOST 52 (4) 335-344 (2010) PREGlEDNI RAD RADIOECOLOGY AS A FACTOR OF SAFETY IN THE MEDITERRANEAN SUMMARY: The paper presents the importance of radioecology as a safety factor in the Mediterranean, with special focus on the Adriatic. A survey and description of radioecology investigations in progress in the croatian Adriatic zone is provided. They are part of a larger program of monitoring environment radioactivity in croatia.
