Japan: Fukushima's Radioactive Plume to Reach U.S. by 2014

The long journey of the radioactive particles could help researchers better understand how the oceans currents circulate around the world. Ocean simulations showed that the plume of radioactive cesium-137 released by the Fukushima disaster in 2011 could begin flowing into...
