Abstract
Measurements of radon activity concentration (RAC) were made in two localities of Slovakia. The first one is located on the campus of Comenius University in Bratislava, where radon has been monitored since 1991. The second area is situated in the city of Nováky (midwest Slovakia, ∼150 km from Bratislava). The localities have a different orography. RAC was measured continuously by large-volume scintillation chambers. The outdoor air was sampled at a height of 1.5 m above the ground. Time courses of RAC in both localities have a similar character. The correlation coefficients between RAC in Bratislava and Nováky was quite high (R(2) = 0.45). However, RACs in Nováky were found out to be about two times higher (∼12.1 Bq m(-3)) than in Bratislava.
