RADON IN GROUNDWATERS IN THE BAIKAL REGION AND TRANSBAIKALIA: VARIATIONS IN SPACE AND TIME by K. Zh. Seminsky, A. K. Seminsky

“…Radon content in water samples was measured in accordance with the standard procedure using a RRA-01M-03 radiometer (sensitivity of at least 1.4∙10–4 s–1∙Bq–1∙m3; maximum allowable relative error of 30 %).Based on the frequency patterns of Q values measured in the Baikal region and Transbaikalia (Fig. 2) and the analysis of the known classifications of the water sources by radioactivity, we propose a uniform regional classification of groundwaters with respect to 222Rn content (Table 1). …”
