Log-normality of indoor radon data in the Walloon region of Belgium
Journal of Environmental Radioactivity, 2015 The deviations of the distribution of Belgian indoor radon data from the log-normal trend are examined. Simulated data are generated to provide a theoretical frame for understanding these deviations. It is shown that the 3-component structure of indoor radon (radon from subsoil, outdoor air and building materials) generates deviations in the low- and ...

Homogenity of geological units with respect to the radon risk in the Walloon region of Belgium
Journal of Environmental Radioactivity, 2014 In the process of mapping indoor radon risk, an important step is to define geological units well-correlated with indoor radon. The present paper examines this question for the Walloon region of Belgium, using a database of more than 18,000 indoor radon measurements.

Ants Can Anticipate the Following Quantity in an Arithmetic Sequence
Behavioral Sciences, 2021 Workers of the ant Myrmica sabuleti have been previously shown to be able to add and subtract numbers of elements and to expect the time and location of the next food delivery. We wanted to know if they could anticipate the following quantity of elements

Groundwater quality changes in peri-urban areas of the Walloon region of Belgium
Journal of Contaminant Hydrology, 2021 An extensive survey of groundwater quality was performed at the regional scale in peri-urban and industrial contexts of the Walloon Region (Belgium). To this end, 243 sampling locations from 8 areas located in different geological contexts and different peri-urban areas of the region were sampled outside pollution hotspots related to contaminated sites.
