AbstractThis is a data set of suspended 134Cs and 137Cs concentration in rivers within the 80km radius from TEPCO's Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant, measured by Fukushima Prefectural Center for Environmental Creation. Suspended solids (SS) samplers were installed at 28 river monitoring sites, and SS samples were collected every few months (62 days on average). After the samples were dried at 110 ℃ for 24 hours, the concentrations of 134Cs and 137Cs were measured with a germanium semiconductor detector. All data are decay corrected on the sample collection date. Detailed processing methods and data before August 2015 are published in Taniguchi et al. (2019). ---Taniguchi, K., Onda, Y., Smith, H.
