Development and verification of long-range atmospheric transport model of radon-222 and lead-210 including scavenging process (2008)

Hirao, Shigekazu, Nono, Yuki, Yamazawa, Hiromi, Moriizumi, Jun, Lida, Takao, Yoshioka, Katsuhiro

A three-dimensional Eulerian atmospheric long-range transport model of radon-222 (^222Rn) and lead-210 (^210Pb) coupled with meteorological model MM5 was developed. The model calculates advection,...

Continuous Atmospheric Radon-222 Concentration Observation in East Asia (2008)

Moriizumi, Jun, Ohkuraa, Takehisa, Hirao, Shigekazu, Nono, Yuki, Yamazawa, Hiromi, Kim, Yoon-Shin, ...

Continuous observation of atmospheric radon-222 (^222Rn) concentration has been operated for years in China, Korea and Japan, including remote islands isolated in the ocean. The sites were allocated...

Estimation of global radon exhalation rate distribution (2008)

Goto, Masayoshi, Moriizumi, Jun, Yamazawa, Hiromi, Lida, Takao, Zhuo, Weihai

A radon exhalation rate distribution model was developed, which considers dependency on soil water saturation, soil temperature and soil texture. The global averages of the radon exhalation rates...

The Measurement of Size Distribution of Indoor Natural Radioactive Aerosols by Imaging Plate Technique (2008)

Lida, Takao, Rahman, Naureen Mahbub, Matsui, Akihiro, Yamazawa, Hiromi, Moriizumi, Jun

The indoor radioactive aerosols of radon decay products are considered as a main radioactive contaminant in human environment. In this study, the particle size distribution was measured with low...

Evaluation of aerosol sizing characteristic of an impactor using imaging plate technique (2007)

Rahman, Naureen Mahbub, Iida, Takao, Saito, Fumihiro, Koarashi, Jun, Yamasaki, Keizou, Yamazawa, Hiromi, ...

The activity-size distribution of radon decay products are normally determined using two approaches: direct and indirect. The present study utilises the direct approach to evaluate sizing information...

The study of activity median aerodynamic diameter using imaging plate technique for assessment of effective dose from radon and its decay products (2007)

Rahman, Naureen Mahbub, Iida, Takao, Yamazawa, Hiromi, Yokoyama, Shintaro, Moriizumi, Jun, Saito, Fumihiro, ...

The indoor workplace environment was evaluated for exposure to radon and its decay products at two Universities in two metropolises of Japan. The mean radon concentrations in Nagoya University (NU)...
