The characterization of natural radioactivity content in thirty-one natural building materials
representative of the Campania region (South Italy) was carried out. High resolution γ-ray …

How long is needed for an observable to exceed its previous highest value and establish a
new record? This time, known as the age of a record plays a crucial role in quantifying …

The influence of different building types on the activity concentration of Radon indoor is
studied through transport models in soil and building materials. The numerical solutions of …

Several satellite-based systems have been developed over the years to study and monitor
thermal volcanic activity. Most of them use high temporal resolution satellite data, provided …

In this study, site-specific natural background levels (NBLs) were determined for 18
elements (Al, As, Be, Cd, Co, Cu, Cr, Fe, Hg, K, Mn, Mo, Ni, Pb, Tl, U, V, and Zn) in two …

This is the first paper to report a potential map of radon (222 Rn) distribution in the
Campania region of southern Italy, using the geostatistical kriging interpolation method …

Understanding the process of earthquake preparation is of utmost importance in mitigating
the potential damage caused by seismic events. That is why the study of seismic precursors …

Bubbles are ubiquitous in water and are unusually energy-rich in the seabed. Harvesting
energy from subsea bubbles is a viable solution to supplying energy in situ for underwater …

This paper reports the analysis of soil 222 Rn data recorded over 7-years in the volcanic
caldera of Campi Flegrei (Naples-Italy). The relationship between Radon activity …

Despite its known reconstructed volcanic history, the structural setting and present state of
the Astroni Volcano of the Campi Flegrei caldera in Italy are still poorly defined. Through …
