Özet
Indoor radon studies have been conducted in Artvin, Eastern alack sea region of Turkey using SSNTD typ e nuclear track dedector (CR-39). Radon measurements were done for 4 seasons in 73 dwellings, selected as uniformly distributed as possible. The radon concentrations vary from 21 aq m-3 to 321 aq m-3 with the annual mean concentration of 132 aq m -3 for Artvin. Seasonal variation indoor radon shows high in winter low values in summer. The resulting estimated annual effective dose-equivalent due to inhalation of radon for inhabitants is 3.32 mSv y-1 and the total annual effective dose lies in the range of the action level (3-10 mSv y-1) recommended by the ICRP. © 2009 American Institute of Physics.
