Following nine years since the Fukushima Dai-ichi Nuclear Power Plant Acciden (FDNPPA), it might be the time to draw a much clearer conclusion for the impact of FDNPPA on marine biota. In this work, the evolution of the FDNPPA derived ¹³⁴Cs, ¹³⁷Cs and ¹¹⁰ᵐAg in the neon flying squids in the Northwest Pacific from 2011 to 2018 were studied. The background level of ¹³⁷Cs in neon flying squids (<0.10 Bq/kgfᵣₑₛₕ wₑᵢgₕₜ with the average of 0.017 Bq/kgfᵣₑₛₕ wₑᵢgₕₜ) before FDNPPA were estimated. The radioactive levels of ¹³⁴Cs, ¹³⁷Cs and ¹¹⁰ᵐAg in neon flying squids decreased with time. ¹³⁴Cs and ¹¹⁰ᵐAg decreased at the half-lives of 7.6 months and 5.7 months at the population level, respectively. After May 2014, ¹³⁴Cs and ¹¹⁰ᵐAg cannot be detected and ¹³⁷Cs activities returned to the background level before FDNPPA. BCFs of cesium isotopes (3.7–17.7 with the average of 10.8) and ¹¹⁰ᵐAg (∼7 × 10⁴) for neon flying squids were estimated. The amount of ¹¹⁰ᵐAg released into the Northwest Pacific (∼20-∼26 TBq) were firstly calculated using a ¹³⁴Cs/¹¹⁰ᵐAgₐcₜᵢᵥᵢₜy ᵣₐₜᵢₒ method. Radiation dose assessment demonstrated that it was far from causing radiation harm to neon flying squids in the open ocean of Northwest Pacific and humans who ingested these neon flying squids.
