Proceedings of a symposium jointly organized by the IAEA and FAO, Vienna, 17-21 October 1994. The objective of the symposium was to assess the progress being made in the use of nuclear and related techniques for studying various aspects of soil fertility and plant nutrition, environmental problems, the potential and limitations of existing methods, and the possibilities for further development. Analytical methods and equipment are discussed, as are isotope dilution techniques, transfers of fixed N to non-fixing crops, crop water consumption, labelled fertilizer involving fertigation, 13C discrimination, erosion and soil degradation, and global warming and climate change. The proceedings should assist scientists, particularly those in developing countries, to find ways of increasing and sustaining soil fertility and crop production while preserving the environment.
Contents: Opening session; Recent developments in analytical methods and equipment; Fertilizer use and management studies; Biological nitrogen fixation in sustainable cropping systems; Soil organic matter studies and nutrient cycling; Water use and management studies; Plant physiological aspects in crop production; Environmental pollution and preservation; Soil conservation, soil erosion and desertification; Poster session.

Proceedings of an international conference, Vienna, 5-8 September 1994. The purpose of the conference was to discuss the present and future importance of the nuclear power option as a source for energy based on proven, accepted, economically competitive and environmentally benign technologies. The safe and reliable operation of existing nuclear power plants, the demonstration of convincing solutions to the storage and disposal of radioactive waste, a predictable licensing process and supportive government policies are essential prerequisites to achieving a wider public acceptance of nuclear power, which presently is the most important factor deciding its future application.
Contents: Plenary session; National and regional overviews; Learning from experience: I. Operation and maintenance; II. Construction, quality assurance and decommissioning; III. Improving performance; Issues affecting the nuclear power option: I. Public acceptance; II. Irradiated fuel and waste management; III. Safety; IV. Economics, environment and liability; Timely preparation: I. Providing resources; II. Government strategies; Panel discussion; Closing statements.

Proceedings of a symposium organized in co-operation with ANS, ESARDA, INMM and the Nuclear Society International (Moscow), Vienna, 14-18 March 1994. Presented at this symposium were: the findings in Iraq by the Action Team established under United Nations Security Council resolutions, South Africa's decision to join the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT), details of the IAEA-Argentina-Brazil-ABACC Quadripartite Safeguards Agreement, and measures following the break-up of the former USSR into newly independent States. Special emphasis was given to the verification of a State's declaration as well as detection of undeclared activities. In addition to covering recent developments, the symposium considered fundamental changes stemming from converging relationships between nuclear arms reductions and the civil use of plutonium, unattended computer based verification systems and other safeguards concepts for the future, and the review and extension of the NPT in 1995.
Contents: (Vol. 2) Safeguards for plutonium facilities; Containment and surveillance technology; Safeguards for reactors and spent fuel storage facilities; Non-destructive analysis measurement techniques; Safeguards approaches, criteria and evaluation; Safeguards concepts for the future; Member States support programmes; Panel on future directions for international safeguards.

Proceedings of a symposium organized by the IAEA and hosted by the Korea Electric Power Corporation on behalf of the Government of the Republic of Korea, in co-operation with the CEC, the European Nuclear Society, the Korea Atomic Industrial Forum, the Korean Nuclear Society, the OECD/NEA and the World Energy Council, Seoul, 18-22 October 1993. The purpose of the symposium was to provide a forum for discussions on the need for nuclear power, on the features of advanced nuclear power systems and their design objectives and safety approaches, taking into consideration the views of regulatory bodies, on identifying barriers to the deployment of these systems, and on reviewing options for international co-operation. Contents: Opening session; Introduction and overviews of other relevant conferences; Design and safety objectives of advanced nuclear power systems; Panel: Regulatory experience and views on safety aspects of advanced reactors; Barriers and strategies for the deployment of advanced nuclear power systems; Panel: Evaluation of barriers and strategies for the deployment of advanced nuclear power systems; Options for international co-operation for the deployment of advanced nuclear power systems; Panel: The role of international organizations; Closing session.
