Summer Indoor Radon Exceeds Winter Indoor Radon [PDF]
It has been considered true for many years, probably because of commentary in US-EPA publications for the general public, that winter concentrations of indoor radon are greater than summer concentrations.

The first version of the Pan-European Indoor Radon Map [PDF]
A hypothetical Pan-European Indoor Radon Map has been developed using summary statistics estimated from 1.2 million indoor radon samples. In this study we have used the arithmetic mean (AM) over grid cells of 10 km × 10 km to ...

Tangent Blow‐Ups for Processing Non‐Manifold Geometry
Abstract Many geometry processing pipelines implicitly assume their input data is a manifold, or is sampled from one, with a unique tangent plane at every point. Geometric data, however, routinely contains sharp features like edges, corners, self‐intersections, branching junctions, and other singularities, rendering standard methods ill‐defined at ...

The geographical differences and similarities of radon affected areas in England [PDF]
The geographical distribution of radon gas is very uneven. The gas occurs naturally in all buildings at concentrations which can vary from below the United Kingdom national average of 20 Bq m(^-3) to more than 2,000 Bq m(^-3).

Testing of thoron cross-interference of continuous radon measuring instruments
Thoron (220Rn) may interfere with radon (222Rn) measurements, if present. We measured the thoron cross-interference (CI) signal of nine types of electronic radon instruments in constant thoron concentration without the presence of radon.

Machine‐learning models classified Pseudomonas aeruginosa occurrence from routine swimming‐pool monitoring data within the observed network, but performance fell in pools and facilities not used for training, and no model clearly outperformed residual chlorine alone.

Abstract Open bedrock fractures are common features in unstable rock slopes and alter subsurface thermal conditions of fractured rock masses through convective air ventilation and atmospheric exchange. These processes are particularly relevant in cold mountain environments, where variations in ground temperature affect rock mass stability and may allow

Approaches to Estimating Indoor Exposure to Radon—A Systematic Review
Indoor radon exposure has been an increasing concern in recent years due to its health risks, like lung cancer and leukemia. Indoor radon exposure levels can be determined through measurement but with limitations.

Using geographic information systems for radon exposure assessment in dwellings in the Oslo region, Norway [PDF]
Radon exposures were assigned to each residential address in the Oslo region using a geographic information system (GIS) that included indoor radon measurements. The results will be used in an epidemiologic study regarding leukemia and brain cancer.

Although chronic air pollution exposure is linked to lung cancer mortality, the short‐term effects of fluctuating air quality on overall cancer mortality remain uncertain. Here, the authors applied geomatics and machine‐learning models to retrospectively examine possible associations between 31‐day pollution exposure and mortality in a French cancer ...
