A feasibility study of geogenic indoor radon mapping from airborne radiometric survey in northern Thailand
Experiments were carried out in seven test sites on three Quaternary alluvial and terrace deposit basins of northern Thailand, to test the possibility of using airborne equivalent uranium to predict geogenic indoor radon values of the region. The methodology was based on the correlation among soil g...
