Abstract

To study the long-term variations of indoor and outdoor radon concentrations time-averaged radon concentrations were measured in and around two dwellings over a period of almost five years. The integration times for passive dosemeters ranged from 4 to about 18 months. Also studied was the variation of the concentration in a living room and a crawl space as a function of the position of the dosemeters. The outdoor radon concentration was determined as a function of sampling height and position relative to building materials. The relevance of the results for the measuring practice and for the evaluation of radon surveys is discussed.
