Abstract

Radon gas has high mobility and is driven by advection and diffusion with the soil gas throughout connected and water-unsaturated pores and/or cracks in permeable rocks and soils. Hence the radon potential of the area could be dependent on not only geology as a constant source of radon but also from the changes of the saturation state of the ground. The loess complex, characterized by its permeability and usual state of unsaturation, covers 10% of the Bulgarian territory. The study deals with the principles of unsaturated domain modeling. An attempt of generic vertical infiltration model coinciding with the most upper part of loess vadose zone was performed.
