摘要
Seasonal and short term variations of 222Rn activity concentration in borehole air and water of the borehole drilled in cracked quartzite were studied and possible response on meteorological parameters was examined. Seasonal change of radon concentration in borehole air due to atmospheric temperature was confirmed. Short term variation of radon concentration in borehole air coincided with the atmospheric pressure changes. The strong impact of rainfall on radon concentration values was observed both in air and water environments. The decrease of radon content in borehole air and water followed radioactive decay law exclusively in spring and summer month. Contrary to borehole water, rainfall increased radon concentration in borehole air during spring and summer months only. In this paper the results from two and half years of investigation are presented.
