  • Title: Radon concentrations in groundwater in Busan measured with a liquid scintillation counter method.
    Author: Cho JS, Ahn JK, Kim HC, Lee DW.
    Journal: J Environ Radioact; 2004; 75(1):105-12. PubMed ID: 15149764.
    Abstract:
    In this paper, we present the first measurement of radon concentrations in drinking groundwater from private and public deep-bored wells located in the south-eastern area of Korea. The measurements were carried out on 439 samples by using a liquid scintillation method. The results show that the radon concentrations of the samples range from 0 to about 300 Bq l(-1). We find that Sasang ward shows the highest median value of radon concentration among 13 different wards, while Jung ward has the lowest. We find that the radon concentrations are highly dependent on the type of geological rock aquifers.
