Interesting... Taiwan's Environmental Radiation Monitoring Network site is offline

rmsp.trmc.aec.gov.tw/

This isn’t good a 403 Forbidden access, while Japan just maxed out how bad it can get with the reactor cores.
I was watching this site every now and then… and today… no access.
( It was open to the public freely.)

Alishan has the highest reading, by a wide margin: 0.101 μSv/h.
The next highest is Kinmen, at 0.087 μSv/h.

Any ideas why?

natural background is not the same everywhere and those mountains get some more than other places… values are all constant within about +/-0.01 no changes since fukushima (i check them daily)
only deviation of more than that that i have seen in the whole period was what value at the north coast that went up by 0.04 on the weekend for a few hours during the heavy rains.

Maybe we should change the title of this thread? :slight_smile:
At the time of writing, the IAEA iaea.org/ site offers an “access forbidden” message…

And so far I haven’t been able to load the homepage of ctbto.org, the website of the Comprehensive Nuclear Test Ban Treaty Organization, the one that has been providing the animated models of the movements of radioactive particles from Fukushima. I’m using Google Chrome. I didn’t get a 404, but it just won’t load. The little circle on the tab at the top of the browser just keeps going around and around. I briefly tried Internet Explorer, and it didn’t look promising either.

:ponder: :fedora: :tic:

Assuming the Reptile People-Illuminati Coalition isn’t preparing for its final assault, I think maybe there’s some technical problem, perhaps here in Taiwan. Maybe the framistatic inducturetor unit of the flux capacitor contains an excessive level of rowrbazzlement. Somebody probably just forgot to empty the ashtray. That’s the cause of most rowrbazzlement issues.

Or maybe there’s nobody home at the Internet (except us, of course). :scooby:

I was just about to buy some aluminum foil (since tin foil can’t be had anywhere i know), but this site is working again: iaea.org/
And ctbto.org/ also loads…

Oh, well…

Those atomic people need to start staggering their coffee breaks.

What do the numbers mean please? Why would they go up during rain?

I smell conspiracy,but that’s just me. :wink:

Rain makes fallout er…fall out (well wash out, obviously). I don’t know whether that’s what’s happening here, but in Scotland, the Chernobyl hotspots coincided with rain in the mountains.

Edit: Are there any logs of this data available online?

no idea. probably not since there is new data every 15 mins and there is usually nothing there. i doubt they make archive data available for that. havent check though :stuck_out_tongue: feel free to dig through all the chinese on their website though :slight_smile: if you find anything i think it was sunday around 1500.

yeah, we really need a before after reading…

all websites not updated since 2012.

Which “all” websites?

The link mentioned above doesn’t work.
Instead go to: trmc.aec.gov.tw/utf8/eng/
Click Environmental Radiation Monitoring Network
Then choose NPP1 NPP2 NPP3 or NPP4
It works.
