Investigates the geologic controls on generation and transmission of radon gas, possibly the most serious environmental hazard. Provides a well-rounded view of all aspects of the latest techniques and ideas. The lead paper describes the radon potential of the United States in a geologic context. Two papers show how soil radon surveys can be used as a geophysical tool and how these results can be used to determine geologic process. Two papers describe the distribution and controls of radon in recent deposits. The other papers investigate different considerations of radon analysis including radon in water, meteorological controls on radon, and statistical methods to utilize indoor radon results for geologic applications.
