Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas found in rocks, soil, and building materials.
Precisely because of its gaseous nature, it tends to concentrate in indoor environments …

Improving the energy efficiency of buildings is a major target in developed countries toward
decreasing their energy consumption and CO2 emissions. To meet this target, a large …

Personal cloud, termed as the difference in air pollutant concentrations between breathing
zone and room sites, represents the bias in approximating personal inhalation exposure that …

The air infiltration rate in a high-rise residential building can influence indoor air quality and
building energy consumption. This study was carried out to estimate the air infiltration rates …

This study was conducted to evaluate the influence of thermal retrofit on radon levels in
workrooms, and to determine whether the radon concentration in the building changes after …

During last decades, energy saving in new buildings became relevant within the energy
efficiency strategies in various countries. Such energy efficient building characteristics as air …

Radon poses significant health risks. Thus, the continuous monitoring of radon
concentrations in buildings' indoor air is relevant, particularly in schools. Low-cost sensors …

Exposure to elevated levels of certain volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in households
has been linked to deleterious health effects. This study presents the first large‐scale …

Radon is a natural and radioactive gas that can accumulate in indoor environments. Indoor
radon concentration (IRC) is influenced, among other factors, by meteorology, which is the …

We performed the first large-scale investigation of indoor air quality (IAQ), energy and
occupant behavior and satisfaction, in 650 energy-efficient dwellings in western Switzerland …
