Radium-226 decays by alpha-particle emission directly to radon-222 (.Rn), which is short-lived (half-life = 3.82 days). Two other isotopes of radon are formed in natural decay chains, one from thoriu

A particular challenge is evaluating potential and existing additions of the latter to groundwater and drinking water supplies. On regional and even global scales, sulphate as a component of ‘acid rain’captured scie

The intake of high levels of nitrate can cause methemoglobinemia in infants, and there is substantial evidence collected from animal experiments that N-nitroso compounds are carcinogens.

The dependence of their solubility on temperature makes it possible to determine the recharge temperature of recent and paleo groundwaters (Stute and Schlosser; Chapter 11). In this chapter we focus on specific radioactive isotopes of two noble gases, argon and krypton, which occ

Many other CFC compounds have since been produced, most notably CFC-113 (trichlorotrifluoroethane, C.F.C1.). CFCs are nonflammable, noncorrosive, nonex
