Das Wrack des russischen Atom-U-Boots "Komsomolez", das 1989 in der Norwegischen See sank, strahlt weiterhin hohe Radioaktivität aus. Messungen des radioaktiven Isotops Strontium-90 sind bis zu 400.000-mal höher als normal, Caesium-137 sogar bis zu 800.000-mal. Norwegische Forscher überwachen das Wrack seit 2013 und entnahmen 2019 Proben, die zeigen, dass die Titanversiegelungen intakt sind. Es wurden keine Spuren von Plutonium gefunden, aber es gibt Anzeichen für den Zerfall von radioaktivem Material aus dem atomaren Antrieb und gelagertem nuklearen Brennstoff. Obwohl die Radioaktivität durch Meeresströmungen schnell verdünnt wird, gibt es Bedenken hinsichtlich der Auswirkungen auf die fischreiche Region.
