“…The reason of this remained outstanding and not discussed. For plasmogenerating structures of the EastEuropean platform actual degassing it is established a high negative correlation (r = -0, 82) of subsoil radon volume activity average values with the atmospheric pressure values [85]. Comparing the submitted literature data with ours the near the earth atmospheric pressure role in plasmoids formation of BRZ seems to be contradictory and not enough clear.…”

“…It is necessary to implement the synchronous observations on the ground and in near the earth troposphere, using advanced equipment for various purposes (from thermometers, gas-analysers and cameras to seismographs, magnetometers and geo radars) capable at the moments of photo shooting to register degassing parameters values (heat flow, gases contents, seismic, electromagnetic fields and others) and weather conditions (temperature, humidity, pressure, precipitation, wind) in near the earth atmosphere. Taking into account a quasi-periodic degassing manifestation character and plasmoids generation, the registrations results analysis and interpretation of instrumental observations we recommend making on the basis of parameters values time series periodograms using the wavelet-analysis the method, as shown in the example of the radon emanation from tectonic structures [85]. Linear correlation factors values, given in our article do not reflect the links cyclicity, and give only an understanding of the parameters variability some trends.…”

On the base of photo documents data of natural plasmoids in near the earth atmosphere over the actual degassing lithosphere structures of Baikal rift zone (active faults, mud volcanism latent form structures, thermal water sources), augmented with the experiments results, the existing of the plasmoid form phenomenon of the Earth "cold" degassing is proved. The prior investigators discussed this phenomenon at the level of hypotheses and assumptions. Various factors and plasmogeneration conditions in the lithosphere and atmosphere are considered. The morphostructural classification of registered plasmoids is made and their internal configuration features are discovered. The water phase transitions defining role in appearance and plasmoids structuring in near the earth atmosphere is shown. It is specified an influence of meteorological parameters on the plasmoids forming processes (temperature, pressure, humidity, precipitation).

“…The optic and electric effects occurring in the deep faults are often observed during strong earthquakes, and electromagnetic effects during the relaxation pro cesses in the heterogeneous crust are often recorded (Soloviev and Spivak, 2007). Variations in the intensity of the near surface electric field are found to be corre lated to the volumetric activity of the natural subsoil radon (Spivak et al, 2009b).…”

The key trends and problems in the study of interactions between the geospheres in the near sur face areas of the continental crust of the Earth which are of most interest for the formation of living environ ment are formulated. The main periodicities in the variations of geophysical fields determining the natural environmental rhythms are determined. The interactions and transformations of geophysical fields (electric field in the ground and in the atmosphere, radon emanation field, and the field of microseismic vibrations) are considered. It is noted that the tectonic discontinuities and weak disturbances in the solid Earth such as lunar-solar tides and variations in the atmospheric pressure play an important role in the formation of the regimes of geophysical fields at the boundary of the Earth's crust and the atmosphere. The synchronous instrumental observations reveal a mutual influence and significant correlation between the amplitude varia tions of geophysical fields of different nature.

“…However, in the absence of direct measurements, instability can also be inferred from anomalous concentrations of radon or carbon dioxide in the vicinity of active faults. Many studies have shown that high concentrations of these gases relate closely to geodynamic phenomena such as earthquakes (3) or the body tides of the Earth (4) . These relationships exist because the geodynamic phenomena lead to a fundamental change in the volume of the rock mass and such volumetric changes enable greater amounts of gas to emanate towards the ground surface.…”

Tectonic instability may be measured directly using extensometers installed across active faults or it may be indicated by anomalous natural gas concentrations in the vicinity of active faults. This paper presents the results of fault displacement monitoring at two sites in the Bohemian Massif and Western Carpathians. These data have been supplemented by radon monitoring in the Mladeč Caves and by carbon dioxide monitoring in the Zbrašov Aragonite Caves. A significant period of tectonic instability is indicated by changes in the fault displacement trends and by anomalous radon and carbon dioxide concentrations. This was recorded around the time of the catastrophic MW=9.0 Tōhoku Earthquake, which hit eastern Japan on 11 March 2011. It is tentatively suggested that the Tōhoku Earthquake in the Pacific Ocean and the unusual geodynamic activity recorded in the Bohemian Massif and Western Carpathians both reflect contemporaneous global tectonic changes.
