Thanks: Re: Geographical distribution of gamma radiation - Don'tforget altitude

[Kai Kaletsch <eic@shaw.ca>]

Thanks to all who have responded, both on and off list.



Altitude and cosmic rays may be important factors in general health or

overall radiation exposure. Their correlation with radon should be much

weaker than that of terrestrial gamma radiation. I am mainly interested in

exposures that are related to radon by a physical mechanism. These have the

greatest potential to influence a study of radon vs health effects. Of

course, if altitude can be shown to strongly correlate with radon, then it

should be considered too.



Best Regards,

Kai
