Radon is being measured continuously in spring water and soil-gas at Badshahi Thaul Campus, Tehri Garhwal in Himalayan region by using radon Emanometer since December 2002. An effort was made to correlate the variance of radon concentrations in spring water and soil-gas with meteorological parameters at the same location. The main meteorological parameters that affect the radon emanation from h...

The Ohio Radon Information System (ORIS) internet site at http://www.uioledo.edu/-aprs/oris/ is one of the most comprehensive sites on indoor radon available on the World Wide Web. It was developed by the authors under a research grart from the Ohio Department of Health and U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. It is estimated that from 700 to 1300 people die annually in Ohio from radoninduced ...

Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is a powerful tool for predicting and visualizing radon content and indoor air quality and is cost effective in comparison with other methods such as full scale laboratory and gas trace techniques. The intention of this article is to use CFD to simulate indoor radon distribution and ventilation effects. In this study a mechanically balanced ventilation system ...

Atmospheric radon ((222)Rn) and carbon dioxide (CO2) concentrations were used to gain insight into fugitive emissions in an Australian coal seam gas (CSG) field (Surat Basin, Tara region, Queensland). (222)Rn and CO2 concentrations were observed for 24 h within and outside the gas field. Both (222)Rn and CO2 concentrations followed a diurnal cycle with night time concentrations higher than day ...

Cohort studies have consistently shown underground miners exposed to high levels of radon to be at excess risk of lung cancer, and extrapolations based on those results indicate that residential radon may be responsible for nearly 10-15% of all lung cancer deaths per year in the United States. However, case-control studies of residential radon and lung cancer have provided ambiguous evidence of...

animals that breed in ground holes can be exposed to higher doses of radiation from natural radioactive isotopes, including radon and its daughters, present in soil air. one of such species is the sand martin riparia riparia. examination of natural burrows in sand mines revealed radon levels of 2.82-1320 bq/m3 in the examined soil horizon where martins dug their burrows. it was shown that adult...

introduction radon is a colorless and tasteless gas which exists in most soils. it is a substance that poses a potential risk for lung cancer in case a person is exposed to high levels over long periods of time. the environmental protection agency (epa) estimates that 90% of lung cancers per year are caused by radon. the aim of this paper is to estimate the absorbed doses of 222rn by mcnpx simu...
