مستخلص: After the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant accident, the terrestrial environment became severely contaminated with radiocesium. Consequently, the river and lake water in the Fukushima area exhibited high radiocesium levels, which declined subsequently. The partition coefficient of 137 Cs between the suspended sediment (SS) and dissolved phases, K d , was introduced to better understand the dynamic behavior of 137 Cs in different systems. However, the K d values in river water, ranging from 2 × 10 4 to 7 × 10 6  L kg -1 , showed large spatiotemporal variability. Therefore, the factors controlling the 137 Cs partition coefficient in natural water systems should be identified. Herein, we introduce a chemical model to explain the variability in 137 Cs K d in natural water systems. The chemical model includes the complexation of Cs + with mineral and organic binding sites in SS, metal exchange reactions, and the presence of colloidal species. The application of the chemical model to natural water systems revealed that Cs + is strongly associated with binding sites in SS, and a major chemical interaction between 137 Cs and the binding sites in SS is the isotope exchange reaction between stable Cs and 137 Cs, rather than metal exchange reactions with other metal ions such as potassium ions. To explain the effect of the SS concentration on K d , the presence of colloidal 137 Cs passing through a filter is significant as the dominant dissolved species of 137 Cs in river water. These results suggest that a better understanding of stable Cs dissolved in natural water is important for discerning the geochemical and ecological behaviors of 137 Cs in natural water.
