Abstract In Earth Sciences there is a growing interest in studies concerning soil-radon
activity, due to its potential as a tracer of numerous natural phenomena. Our work marks an …

The purpose of this study was to investigate radon in the vicinity of geologic fault zones
within the Krakow region of Poland, and to determine the influence of such formations on …

The article presents the most important results of radon research in Poland. Large-scale
research, launched in this country in the early 1950s, was originally linked to using radon …

Three different methodologies were used to measure Radon (222Rn) in soil, based on both
passive and active detection system. The first technique consisted of solid-state nuclear …

This study concerns measurements of radon and thoron emissions from soil carried out in
2004 on the eastern flank of Mt. Etna, in a zone characterized by the presence of numerous …

In the present study, radon exhalation rates in terms of mass and area, as well as the
effective radium concentration in soil samples collected simultaneously from different …

The seasonal variations of the indoor radon activity concentrations were determined in the
97 dwellings of Trabzon, Turkey. The annual average indoor radon activity concentration …

Radon is the second cause of lung cancer after smoking, therefore is acknowledged as a
major indoor air pollutant. Geogenic radon potential indicates regions where for natural …

The aim of this study is to determine the variation of soil-gas radon concentrations from
different rock formations in Ogbomoso, southwestern Nigeria. The radon concentrations at …

The radon concentration in soil gas at the crustal surface is closely related to the
development of local fractures. Therefore, the spatial variation in soil-gas radon …
