In deep soil where diffusional loss is negligible, the Rn concentration in soil gas is controlled
by Ra, emanation coefficient (E), dry bulk density (ρb), and particle density (ρP), plus the …

The temporal, geophysical, and geographical parameters related to the emanation of Rn222
at the earth‐atmosphere interface have been studied. Such information is necessary in the …

The complexity generated by the existence of a great number of parameters and processes
affecting the generation of radon in the source, its transport in the source medium, its entry …

Radon monitoring represents an important investigation tool for environmental changes
assessment and geochemical hazard surveillance. Despite anomalous radon emissions are …

This thesis provides the measurements of 222Rn exhalation rates, 210Pb deposition rates
and excess 210Pb inventories for locations in and around Ranger Uranium Mine and Jabiru …

The study shows how geology and tectonic activity affect the soil gas 222 Rn concentration.
The tectonically active zone, namely the Ghuttu region, which is located within the …

At the former Schlema-Alberoda mining site, located in the south-east of Germany, waste
rock dump 38neu was built along a natural slope on the edge of a valley. The dump is 750 m …

There is a need for a validation framework for long-range atmospheric transport modelling
dedicated to radionuclides. For distances greater than 50 km, the modelling of radionuclide …

Radon is the heaviest of all naturally occurring noble gases and it has a total of 36 isotopes,
all of which are radioactive (ranging from 193Rn to 228Rn). Only three of these isotopes …

To study the potential of 220Rn as a groundwater tracer, we analyzed different groundwater
systems with a laboratory-proven radon-in-water detection system. However, with one single …
