Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue is an outstanding source of recent research in the field of measurement and monitoring of radionuclides in the atmosphere. This multidisciplinary field has far-reaching implications for atmospheric and radiation protection sciences, as well as for forming public opinion and state policies. That is why the research in this field should be continuous and systematic, and at the highest level of metrology merit. Gathering the newest research in the field of Atmospheric radioactivity, this Special Issue aims to provide a comprehensive overview of innovative methodologies and emerging trends, as well as long-term data in the measurement and monitoring of radionuclides in the atmosphere. By bringing together contributions from leading experts, this collection seeks to enhance the understanding of atmospheric radioactivity, improve detection techniques, and foster collaboration across disciplines, thereby emphasizing the critical role of radionuclide monitoring in assessing environmental health, informing regulatory frameworks, and enhancing public awareness and safety.
