 note = {137Cs in seawater is one of the most powerful tracers of water motion. Large volumes of samples have been required for determination of 137Cs in seawater. This paper describes improvement of separation and purification processes of 137Cs in seawater, which includes purification of 137Cs using hexachloroplatinic acid in addition to ammonium phosphomolybdate (AMP) precipitation. As a result, we succeeded the 137Cs determination in seawater with a smaller sample volume of 10 liter by using ultra-low background gamma-spectrometry in the Ogoya underground facility. 137Cs detection limit was about 0.1 mBq (counting time: 106 s). This method is applied to determine 137Cs in small samples of the South Pacific deep waters. © 2008 Springer Science+Business Media, LLC.},
