Abstract
The radon (Rn) and thoron (Tn) concentrations and other environmental parameters were measured in the vicinity of active faults in two regions with different geology structure of Japan. The range of measured values was from 1.2 to 74 kBq m$^{-3}$, 1.1 to 38.9 kBq m$^{-3}$, 0% to 4.35%, and 2$\times $10$^{-13}$ to 4$\times $10$^{-11}$ m$^{2}$, for Rn, Tn, CO$_{2}$, and soil permeability, respectively. Significant differences in the measured parameters were observed, suggesting that Rn concentrations near faults are strongly influenced by geological structure and fault type. Based on statistical analysis, good correlations were found between Rn, Tn, and CO$_{2}$ (carried gas ) concentrations. It is planned to continue the study with measurements at a number of additional sites.
期刊介绍：
Radiation Protection Dosimetry covers all aspects of personal and environmental dosimetry and monitoring, for both ionising and non-ionising radiations. This includes biological aspects, physical concepts, biophysical dosimetry, external and internal personal dosimetry and monitoring, environmental and workplace monitoring, accident dosimetry, and dosimetry related to the protection of patients. Particular emphasis is placed on papers covering the fundamentals of dosimetry; units, radiation quantities and conversion factors. Papers covering archaeological dating are included only if the fundamental measurement method or technique, such as thermoluminescence, has direct application to personal dosimetry measurements. Papers covering the dosimetric aspects of radon or other naturally occurring radioactive materials and low level radiation are included. Animal experiments and ecological sample measurements are not included unless there is a significant relevant content reason.
