Abstract
The accurate measurement and modeling of certain radium and radon isotopes is important because such radionuclides have become primary tools for determining fluxes of submarine groundwater discharge (SGD) into the ocean, rates of mixing of coastal waters, residence times of water in estuaries, and interactions between surface water and groundwater.Fifty‐two scientists from 14 countries met for a workshop on radium and radon isotopes, hosted by the Venice office of the U.N. Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO). These scientists discussed complexities regarding the measurement of radium‐223 (223Ra), radium‐224 (224Ra), radium‐226 (226Ra), radium‐228 (228Ra), radon‐220 (220Rn), and radon‐222 (222Rn), as well as models used to apply the results to environmental questions.
