Radon, Radium, and Other Radioactivity in Ground Water Hydrogeologic Impact and Application to Indoor Airborne Contamination Proceedings of the Nw

This new book focuses on sampling and analysis, radon and radium in water supply wells, predictive models, geologic and hydrogeologic controls that influence radon occurrence, monitoring radon and other radioactivity from geologic sources and mining impacts on occurrence of radioactivity in ground water. Also discussed are occurrence, testing, treatment, and reduction of radon from groundwater. Because the most severe health hazard from indoor radioactivity results from inhalation of short-lived radioactive decay products of radon, the EPA scheduled a major conference early in 1987 on Radon, Radium, and Other Radioactivity in Ground Water-Hydrogeologic Impact and Application to Indoor Airborne Contamination. The result is this book.Graves, Barbara is the author of 'Radon, Radium, and Other Radioactivity in Ground Water Hydrogeologic Impact and Application to Indoor Airborne Contamination Proceedings of the Nw' with ISBN 9780873711173 and ISBN 0873711173.
