The current study uses ICP-MS (inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry) and SSNTDs (solid-state nuclear track detectors) to measure uranium concentrations in 12 surface soil samples from selected locations in Um Qasr in the Southern Basrah governorate. In the ICP-MS technique, uranium concentrations ranged from 0.6 to 2.2 ppm, with an average value of 1.3 ppm. In the SSNTDs technique, uranium concentrations ranged from 1.4 ± 0.3 ppm to 1.6 ± 0.2 ppm, with an average value of 1.5 ± 0.2 ppm. The results obtained from the soil samples were within the permissible limits recommended by the UNSCEAR Committee of 11.7 ppm.
本研究采用电感耦合等离子体质谱法（ICP-MS）和固态核径迹探测器（SSNTDs），对巴士拉省南部乌姆盖斯尔选定地点的12个表层土壤样本中的铀浓度进行测量。在ICP-MS技术中，铀浓度范围为0.6至2.2 ppm，平均值为1.3 ppm。在SSNTDs技术中，铀浓度范围为1.4±0.3 ppm至1.6±0.2 ppm，平均值为1.5±0.2 ppm。从土壤样本中获得的结果在联合国原子辐射影响科学委员会建议的11.7 ppm允许限值范围内。
