Description
Based on collaboration between the staff of the SÚJCHBO, v.v.i., DIAMO s.p., SÚRO, v.v.i. and FJFI ČVUT measurement campaigns were conducted in the vicinity of the uranium waste rock dumps in the Příbram region. These measurements confirmed high radon activity concentrations in the ambient air at levels exceeding several kBq.m-3. The measurements also verified annual and daily variations of radon in the outdoor atmosphere and its emanation from the waste rock dumps body. Based on these measurements, different approaches were developed to describe the distribution of radon into the external atmosphere and its impact on the surrounding environment.
