A pilot study of the dependence of radon concentration on the tectonic structures, using simple geophysical methods
Original language description
It is well-known that there are great variations in radon concentrations in the soil gas on building sites. The concentration may sometimes vary by more than two orders of magnitude. The tectonic structure of the bedrock is one of the factors that influences the intensity of the radon outflow. We used the simple ARES geophysical method in various modes (Schlumberger, Dipole-Dipole and Pole-Dipole arrays) for in situ tectonic structure determination. The radon concentration in the soil gas was measured using the same network as for the resistivity measurements. The radon measurements were also followed up by in situ gamma spectrometry measurements. The behavior of the radon concentration in the soil gas was correlated with the detected tectonic non-homogeneities.
