Right now, 16 uRADMonitor stations in Australia report a median background dose rate of 0.120 µSv/h, with values between 0.080 and 0.183 µSv/h. Typical outdoor background radiation is between about 0.05 and 0.20 µSv/h. It depends on altitude and local geology, and it rises briefly during rain.

How these values are measured

Each station counts ionizing radiation events with a Geiger tube and reports counts per minute (CPM). The dose rate shown here is the average of the station's latest readings multiplied by a conversion factor specific to its tube. Values from different tubes are comparable in µSv/h, not in CPM.
