Japan's
Science Ministry (MEXT) has released a map showing the radiation levels
over the year between November, 2011 and November, 2012 decreased by
40% within 80 kilometers of F. Daiichi. MEXT says half of the drop is
due to Cs-134 decay, and the other half due to rainwater flushing plus
decontamination efforts. MEXT adds that all areas outside the 80km
radius are now below the 1 millisievert per year national limit. The
Ministry map is entirely in Japanese, but the admittedly anti-nuclear
Asahi Shimbun posted it in English with as many negative assumptions as
they could muster. Here's the Asahi Shimbun link...
