The radioactivity levels of naturally-occurring 238U, 232Th, 226Ra and 40K and anthropogenic 137Cs in surface water from eight locations in the Suez Canal have been assessed by gamma-ray spectrometry. The samples were further characterized by determination of the common cations and anions using ion chromatography. A comparison of 137Cs radioactivity levels in surface water from the Suez Canal with those of other sea waters is presented. The radioactivity levels of 238U, 232Th, 226Ra and 40K from sea water are also reported. The effect of total dissolved solids (TDS), chloride, sulphate ion concentrations on the radioactivity levels of 238U, 232Th and 226Ra is discussed.
