Since its discovery by Dorn in 1900, studies of radon and its progeny have contributed to
such diverse scientific fields as meteorology, geophysics, mineral exploration and radiation …

There is compelling evidence that the incomplete laser beam receiver field-of-view overlap
(ie, partial overlap) of ground-based vertically-pointing aerosol LiDAR restricts the …

Correlations of nighttime atmospheric methane (CH 4) and 222 radon (222 Rn) observations
in Heidelberg, Germany, were evaluated with the radon tracer method (RTM) to estimate the …

Two-point radon gradients provide a direct, unambiguous measure of near-surface
atmospheric mixing. A 31-month data set of hourly radon measurements at 2 and 50 m is …

Continuous monitoring of the atmospheric boundary layer (ABL) depth (zi) is important for
investigations of trace gases with near‐surface sources. The aim of this study is to examine …

Due to the chaotic motion of charged particles carried by turbulent eddies, electrical
quantities in the atmospheric boundary layer (ABL) have short-term variability superimposed …

Abstract Radon-222 (222 Rn) is a short-lived radioactive gas naturally emitted from land
surfaces and has long been used to assess convective transport in atmospheric models. In …

Vertical mixing of the nocturnal stable boundary layer (SBL) over a complex land surface is
investigated for a range of stabilities, using a decoupling index (0< D_ rb< 1 0< D rb< 1) …

We consider the relations between the mixed layer height and atmospheric electric
parameters affected by convective mixing. Vertical turbulent transport of radon, its progeny …

We demonstrate the ability of atmospheric radon concentrations to reliably and
unambiguously identify local and remote terrestrial influences on an air mass, and thereby …
