Abstract

Time series analyses of cosmogenic radionuclide 7Be and 22Na atmospheric activity concentrations and meteorological data observed at twenty-five International Monitoring System (IMS) stations of the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty Organisation (CTBTO) have shown great variability in terms of noise structures, harmonic content, cross-correlation patterns and local Hurst exponent behaviour. Noise content and its structure has been extracted and characterised for the two radionuclides time series. It has been found that the yearly component, which is present in most of the time series, is not stationary, but has a percentage weight that varies with time. Analysis of atmospheric activity concentrations of 7Be, measured at IMS stations, has shown them to be influenced by distinct meteorological patterns, mainly by atmospheric pressure and temperature.
