Air quality research based on uRADMonitor® data using R

I am a researcher working on topics related to aerosol composition and dynamics, in particular the measurement and analysis of PM2.5 and PM10 in urban environments. In my work I have been using data from uRADMonitor devices to obtain a better understanding of air quality in Romanian cities. Low-cost sensors vs. reference grade equipment Low-cost […]

Observations on diurnal indoor variations in gamma ray count rates

Richard Prettyman, August 2014 Background A close correlation between gamma count rate at ground level, and soil derived Rn-222 flux has been demonstrated in work which has also studied the effects of meteorological and diurnal factors on Rn out-gassing and hence gamma count rate (Szegvary et al, 2007). Under conditions of settled weather with no […]
