Nonlinear and multifractal detrended fluctuation analysis of radon time series in a volcanic touristic cave
Radioactive radon gas poses significant threats to human health. Understanding the complexities of radon distribution and the dynamic relationship with atmospheric parameters will help in mitigating its impact. In this study, Multifractal Detrended Fluctuation Analysis (MF-DFA) and chaos analysis were used to examine the fractal structure in radon gas at La Cueva del Viento, Tenerife, between January 2021 and December 2022. The results showed that radon has multifractal properties in 2021, 2022, and 2021–2022, with values of the spectrum with of about 0.43, 0.49 and 0.44 respectively. The multifractality in radon gas was found to be driven by both long-range correlations and fat-tail distribution. Radon gas concentration at La Cueva del Viento was found to be chaotic in nature, hence, long-term prediction is impossible. Meteorological parameters such as relative humidity, air temperature and pressure were found to contribute to the variation in radon gas concentration within the cave. Relative humidity was observed to have the strongest cross-correlation with radon gas in 2021, 2022, and 2021–2022. The results from this study will help in dosimetric control for both workers and visitors to the cave.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Environmental Radioactivity provides a coherent international forum for publication of original research or review papers on any aspect of the occurrence of radioactivity in natural systems.
Relevant subject areas range from applications of environmental radionuclides as mechanistic or timescale tracers of natural processes to assessments of the radioecological or radiological effects of ambient radioactivity. Papers deal with naturally occurring nuclides or with those created and released by man through nuclear weapons manufacture and testing, energy production, fuel-cycle technology, etc. Reports on radioactivity in the oceans, sediments, rivers, lakes, groundwaters, soils, atmosphere and all divisions of the biosphere are welcomed, but these should not simply be of a monitoring nature unless the data are particularly innovative.
