Radioactivity from Japan's Fukushima nuclear power plant was detected in seawater off a remote Alaskan island in the Bering Strait. A 2011 tsunami cut off power to the 6 Daiichi reactors, triggering the worst nuclear accident in history after Chernobyl in 1987. The levels are not considered dangerous but indicate "the northern edge of the plume."
