    Radon potential mapping of the Tralee-Castleisland and Cavan areas (Ireland) based on airborne gamma-ray spectrometry and geology. Appleton J D1, 4, Doyle E2,5, Fenton D3 and Organo C3 1 British Geological Survey (BGS), Keyworth, Nottingham NG12 5GG, UK 2 Geological Survey of Ireland (GSI), Beggars Bush, Haddington Road, Dublin 4, Republic of Ireland 3 Radiological Protection Institute of Ireland (RPII), 3 Clonskeagh Square, Dublin 14, Republic of Ireland Short title: Radon potential mapping based on airborne gamma spectrometry and geology 4 Author to whom any correspondence should be addressed (E-mail: [email protected]) 5 Present address: Exploration and Mining Division, Department of Communications, Energy and Natural Resources (DCENR), 29-31 Adelaide Road, Dublin 2, Ireland 1 Abstract The probability of homes in Ireland having high indoor radon concentrations is estimated on the basis of known in-house radon measurements averaged over 10 x 10 km grid squares. The scope for using airborne gamma-ray spectrometer data of the Tralee-Castleisland area of county Kerry and county Cavan to predict radon potential (RP) in two distinct areas of Ireland was evaluated in this study. Airborne data are compared statistically with in-house radon measurements in conjunction with geological and ground permeability data to establish linear regression models and produce radon potential maps. The best agreement between the percentage of dwellings exceeding the Reference Level (RL) for radon concentrations in Ireland (%>RL), estimated from indoor radon data, and modelled RP in the Tralee- Castleisland area is produced using models based on airborne gamma-ray spectrometry equivalent uranium (eU) and ground permeability data.
