Radioactive materials may contain primordial radionuclides, and radionuclides of anthropogenic, nuclear accident, and waste disposal which are present in marine environments. This review explores various approaches for the effective sampling and detection of marine radionuclides. The different types of samples that can be collected, including water, sediment, biota, and suspended particulate matter are discussed. Additionally, this paper discusses the various analytical techniques employed for radionuclide detection, such as gamma spectrometry and radiochemical separation. The review emphasizes the importance of choosing appropriate sampling and detection methods based on the specific radionuclides, environmental conditions, and the desired level of sensitivity. It also highlights the challenges associated with their sampling and detection in complex marine environments. These include low radionuclide concentrations, interference from natural matrices, and contamination risks.
