Radon-thoron measurements in air and soil from some districts of northern part of India [PDF]
Radon, thoron and their progenies in the indoor environment are considered as one of the health hazards. The alpha emitting nature of these gases made it possible to detect in indoor environment with the help of nuclear track detector techniques.

Return to an extreme environment exposure after pulmonary infection: SCUBA diving as a model?
Graphical overview of the experimental protocol used to investigate post‐COVID physiological responses during scuba diving at three different depths. Abstract The human body implements several adaptive mechanisms to perform in extreme environments. Increasingly, individuals return to such conditions after pulmonary infections, raising concerns about ...

The closed-can exhalation method for measuring radon
Results from closed-can radon exhalation experiments must be interpreted bearing the time-dependent radon diffusion theory in mind. A rapid change from the free to final steady-state exhalation rate will take place for all samples that are thin compared with the radon diffusion length.

Measurement of Gas Fraction and Gas Permeability of Thawing Permafrost Caused by Climate Change
Abstract Thawing of permafrost due to climate change is known to release gases such as the climate drivers carbon dioxide and methane, as well as the carcinogen radon. Gas permeability is extremely low in fully frozen permafrost and can be considered both to function as a seal preventing subsurface gases being released, and to prevent the creation of ...

Exposures in Indoor Air Affecting Health
ABSTRACT Indoor air quality (IAQ) is influenced by a wide range of chemical, biological and physical agents that can negatively impact physical, immunological and mental health. Adverse health effects depend on the type and concentration of pollutants, duration of exposure, and individual susceptibility.
