- W2188237108 abstract "Indoor radon data and geologic, geochemical, and radiochemical studies suggest that substantial quantities of radium have accumulated in soils foped on karstic limestones and related carbonate-rich sediments of various ages in Florida, Guam, and various islands in the Carribbean. These limestones are typically nearshore marine in origin and are elevated relative to sea level. In Florida, indoor radon levels exceeding 40 pCii and, in Guam, indoor radon levels exceeding 200 pCii occur in homes built on these soils in spite of climatic, housing, and lifestyle factors that mitigate against high levels. In southeastern Florida, radium concentrations in soils of as much as 11.3 pCi/g have been measured in soils. The source of the radium in the Florida soils is uncertain; however, clayey, Fe-rich soils with high radium concentrations ratios have been documented in many islands of the Carribbean and the Florida Keys. A primary component of these latter soils is Saharan airborne dust. We infer that the Florida soils have a similar origin. In Guam, aerosol dust from central Asia and other sources may be the parent material for the clayey, Fe-rich soils and inferred high radium concentrations. Elevated indoor radon levels may be expected in housing sited on these soil types on limestone terranes elsewhere at subtropical and tropical latitudes throughout the world where aerosol dust is a significant contributor to soil development." @default.
