Abstract

7Be concentrations in the ground level air in Daejeon, Korea were determined during the period of January 1998 to December 2009 by gamma-ray spectrometric analysis of particulate samples collected on filter paper with a high-volume air sampler. The monthly concentrations of 7Be in the ground level air were in the range of 1.3–7.7 mBq m–3 with strong seasonal trends of low values in the summer and high values in the spring and autumn. The annual mean values of 7Be concentrations showed weak reverse correlation with the annual average sunspot number.
