The CTBTO’s radionuclide stations are equipped with state-of-the-art sensors to detect even minute amounts of airborne radioactivity from a nuclear explosion, which is similar to that of a nuclear accident. One of the first stations to detect radioactive emissions from the Fukushima power plant was the radionuclide station at Takasaki, some 200 kilometres from the plant. Following the Fukushima event, the CTBTO made a number of improvements in terms of hardware, software and procedures that will allow faster and more reliable measurements.
