The earthquake and subsequent tsunami, which flooded over 500 km² of land, resulted in the loss of more than 20,000 lives and destroyed property, infrastructure and natural resources. They also led to the worst civil nuclear accident since the one in Chernobyl in 1986. The loss of off-site and on-site electrical power and compromised safety systems at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station (FDNPS) led to severe core damage to three of the six nuclear reactors on the site; this resulted in the release, over a prolonged period, of radioactive material into the environment. In May 2011, the Committee embarked upon a two-year assessment of the levels and effects of radiation exposure from the FDNPS accident. It reported its findings to the General Assembly in October 2013 (A/68/46) and with a detailed annex A “Levels and effects of radiation exposure due to the nuclear accident after the 2011 great east-Japan earthquake and tsunami" with the supporting scientific data and evaluation. The report was published in April 2014. The Committee maintained an awareness of new information that became available subsequently (reviewed in White Papers published in 2015, 2016 and 2017) and in 2018 decided to prepare an update to its assessment. The UNSCEAR 2020 Report uses the most recent detailed information and analyses available a decade after the accident to validate and, where necessary, revise the estimates of doses to the public and workers. While self-standing, this report is intended to be read in conjunction with the UNSCEAR 2013 Report and the subsequent White Papers and does not repeat all the information available in these publications. All reports can be downloaded at www.unscear.org. 13 critical reviewers g 88 Main objectives of the report Summarize all of the information available since 2012 and assess its implications for the UNSCEAR 2013 Report Validate and revise estimates of doses to the public, based on more detailed analyses of the available information Set out an improved appraisal of the uncertainties Better address issues and objectives not fully addressed in the UNSCEAR 2013 Report 200+ Committee experts reviewed the documents
