Environmental monitoring and external exposure to natural radiation in Canada
Journal of Environmental Radioactivity, 2022 External sources of radiation originate from cosmic rays and natural radioactive elements, principally 40K and decay products in the uranium and thorium decay series occurring in the ground. People are exposed to terrestrial radiation and cosmic rays everywhere and at all times.
