Zusammenfassung |
A network of
three radon stations has been established in the Langadas Basin, northern
Greece for radon monitoring by various techniques in earthquake prediction
studies. Specially made devices with plastic tubes including Alpha
Tracketch Detectors (ATD) were installed for registering alpha particles
from radon and radon decay products exhaled from the ground, every 2
weeks, by using LR-115, type II, non-strippable Kodak films, starting from
December 1996. Simultaneous measurements started using Lucas cells alpha
spectrometer for instantaneous radon measurements in soil gas, before and
after setting ATDs at the radon stations. Continuous monitoring of radon
gas exhaling from the ground started from the middle of August 1999 by
using silicon diode detectors, which simultaneously register
meteorological parameters, such as rainfall, temperature and barometric
pressure. The obtained data were studied together with the data of seismic
events, such as the magnitude, ML, of earthquakes that occurred at the
Langadas Basin during the period of measurements, as registered by the
Laboratory of Geophysics, Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, in order
to find out any association between them. |
