34、 found in the earths crust. Solid elements, also radioactive, followed by stable lead are produced by radon disintegration1.Radon is today considered to be the main source of human exposure to natural radiation. The UNSCEAR (2006) report2suggests that, at the worldwide level, radon accounts for arou

35、nd 52 % of global average exposure to natural radiation. The radiological impact of isotope 222 (48 %) is far more significant than isotope 220 (4 %), while isotope 219 is considered negligible. For this reason, references to radon in this part of ISO 11665 refer only to radon-222.The radon-222 half

36、-life (3,8 days) is long enough for it to migrate from the rock producing it, through the soil, to the air3. The radon atoms in the soil are produced by the disintegration of the radium-226 contained in the mineral grains in the medium. Some of these atoms reach the interstitial spaces between the g

37、rains: this is the phenomenon of emanation. Some of the atoms produced by emanation reach the soils surface by diffusion and convection: this is the phenomenon of exhalation345. These mechanisms are also brought into play in materials (building materials, walls, etc.).The quantity of radon-222 reach

38、ing the open air per unit of time and per unit of surface is called the radon-222 surface exhalation rate and depends on the physical characteristics of the soil and weather conditions. When the ground is covered in snow or a layer of water, or is frozen, this surface exhalation rate can become very

39、 weak.Values of the radon-222 surface exhalation rate observed in France, for example, vary between 1 mBq/m2/s and about 100 mBq/m2/s67. In uranium-bearing ground, radon-222 surface exhalation rates in the order of 50 000 mBq/m2/s can be observed. By way of comparison, the United Nations Scientific

40、Committee estimates the average surface exhalation rate on the surface of the globe at 20 mBq/m2/s8.NOTE The origin of radon-222 and its short-lived decay products in the atmospheric environment and other measurement methods are described generally in ISO 11665-1.
