To investigate the transport processes of earth surface materials in reservoir-catchment system, temporal changes in deposition fluxes of atmospheric radionuclides (210Pb and 7Be) and their sedimentation fluxes in the irrigation reservoir were observed in Noto Peninsula. Atmospheric deposition fluxes of 210Pb and 7Be were observed during one month with a collecting pan installed in Noto Atmospheric Monitoring Observatory in Suzu City during June 2016 to September 2017. Sedimentation fluxes of 210Pb and 7Be were also observed with sediment trap installed in the Shin-ike reservoir located at the 5 km from the atmospheric monitoring site for same intervals of atmospheric deposition.Deposition fluxes of atmospheric 210Pb and 7Be ranged 0.5-5.5 Bq/m/day and 3.1-25 Bq/m/day, respectively, and showed clear seasonal fluctuation with high deposition flux during winter and low during summer. Sedimentation flux of 210Pb to the reservoir bottom was much larger than 210Pb deposition flux from the atmosphere, suggesting that 210Pb eroded from the catchment was major source to reservoir sediment. On the other hand, sedimentation flux of 7Be was almost same level with deposition flux from the atmosphere, suggesting that the contribution of the catchment-derived 7Be is negligible. These differences in contributions of catchment-derived radionuclides to reservoir sediment may be associated with the half-lives of 210Pb (22.3 years) and 7Be (53 days) and the residence time in the catchment area.
