The terrestrial gamma radiation level was determined covering the Kota Tinggi district of Peninsular Malaysia. The dose-rate was measured at 748 locations using gamma ray detector system consisting of a 2.54 cmx2.54 cm Nal (TI) as a gamma detector. Results have allowed construction of a terrestrial...
