Systematic review of statistical methods for the identification of buildings and areas with high radon levels
Radon is a natural and radioactive noble gas, which may accumulate indoors and cause lung cancers after long term-exposure. Being a decay product of Uranium 238, it originates from the ground and is spatially variable. Many environmental (i.e., geology, tectonic, soils) and architectural factors (i.e., building age, floor) influence its presence indoors, which make it difficult to predict. However, different methods have been developed and applie…
A large and feasible national survey representative of population exposure to outdoor gamma radiation in urban areas
Background: Although data on outdoor gamma radiation are available for many countries, they have generally been obtained with measurements performed in undisturbed environments instead of in urban areas where most of the population lives. Only one large national survey, with on-site measurements in urban areas, has been identified worldwide, probably due to high costs (e.g., personnel and instrumentation) and difficulties in selecting measuring p…
Thoron Interference on Performance of Continuous Radon Monitors
The performance of continuous radon monitors (CRMs) is usually evaluated under controlled conditions in a radon chamber during calibrations or intercomparison exercises. The impact of thoron on CRMs response is rarely evaluated; in case the evaluation is performed, it is carried out in a controlled atmosphere with relatively constant, homogeneous, and generally high thoron concentrations and very low radon levels. In a real indoor environment, bo…
