[en] The article presents the measurement results of the volumetric activity (VA) of artificial radionuclides ⁹⁰Sr and ¹³⁷Cs in the coastal waters of the Baltic Sea near the Curonian Peninsula in 2005-2009. The annual average values for this period of time were 12 Bq/m³ (⁹⁰Sr) and 40 Bq/m³ (¹³⁷Cs). Considerable variations in the VA of the radionuclide in individual measurements compared to the average results were observed. The extreme values were 6 and 16 Bq/m³ for ⁹⁰Sr and for ¹³⁷Cs-27 and 75 Bq/m³. It is proposed to allow such variations under the influence of a variety of external factors such as hydro meteorological situations, inflowing rivers and bays, storm activity and etc. Besides, a possibility of penetration of radionuclides into the sea waters from the additional radioactive sources is not excluded.
