This article delves into the factors that may influence radon flux, such as soil properties and weather conditions on the example of two experimental locations with different soil compositions, composed primarily of clay and sand respectively. The experimental location with sandy soil was previously observed to have anomalously high radon flux levels. Radon monitoring was performed routinely, approximately at the same time of day and in parallel on both of these locations to exclude the influence of diurnal variations. The results show that radon transport on these locations differs in mechanism: location with clay soil has diffusive radon transport, with an average radon flux density of 37.4 ± 24.9 mBq m -2 s -1 and a range of 0.3 -167.8 mBq m -2 s -1 , while the location with sandy soil has convective radon transport with an average radon flux density of 93.6 ± 51.2 mBq m -2 s -1 and a range of 9.8 -302.2 mBq m -2 s -1 . This corresponds to about 8.3% of RFD measurements on site with clay soils exceeding the national reference level of 80 mBq m -2 s -1 and 45.6% exceeding them on the site with sandy soils. Average radon flux density values were then compared to meteorological variables using Pearson correlation analysis with Student's t-test. It was observed that radon flux density inversely correlates most strongly with ambient air temperature in both cases, while a weaker inverse correlation is observed with atmospheric precipitation and wind speed for the diffusive radon transport. Radon activity concentration in soil air correlates with the flux density and air temperature only in the case of convective radon transport and does not correlate with anything else.Introduction 222 Rn is the decay product of 226 Ra, which is in turn a member of 238 U decay chain. It is the most common isotope of radon with a half-life of 3.8 d and is considered to be the bigger health hazard than any of the other isotopes of radon. On decay, it produces a plethora of other radioactive elements, of which the alpha-emitters such as 218 Po, 214 Po and 210 Po are the biggest health risk. Decay products of radon are electrically charged and as such they readily adsorb on aerosols and produce a significant effective dose when they decay further in the lungs. This is the reason why radon is regarded as a class-I carcinogen and is the second biggest cause for lung cancer after smoking, according to WHO (WHO, 2009). Additionally, radon-related lung cancer risk stacks with the lung cancer risk from smoking, making radon even more dangerous to smokers than to non-smokers (Darby et al., 2009).Governments around the world set their radon limits and acceptable levels in accordance to International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP report 126, 2014) guidelines. These guidelines set a maximum radon activity concentration of 300 Bq m -3 in dwellings or workplaces, which corresponds to an effective dose of 4 and 14 mSv y -1 at work and home respectively.The efforts of the international scientific community are currently focused on...
