“…Silva et al [39] discuss the application of continuous radon monitoring at the Furnas volcano (São Miguel Island, Azores), illustrating the stumbling blocks encountered when trying to resolve radon patterns in complex geological settings. Martin-Luis et al [40] report on radon and CO 2 monitoring at the Teide volcano (Tenerife, Canary Islands) emphasizing the distinct behavior of the two gases and its association with environmental conditions. Steinitz et al [41] also discuss results from radon monitoring in Tenerife suggesting an extra-terrestrial (solar) component driving temporal variability.…”

Abstract. During the last decades, the radioactive noble gas radon has found a variety of geoscientific applications, ranging from its utilization as a potential earthquake precursor and proxy of tectonic stress over its specific role in volcanic environments to a wide range of applications as a tracer in marine and hydrological settings. This topical issue summarizes the current state of research as exemplified by some original research articles covering the aforementioned as well as other closely related aspects and points to some important future directions of radon application in geosciences. This editorial provides a more detailed overview of the contents of this volume, a brief summary of the rationale underlying the diverse applications, and outlines some important perspectives.

“…6). The latter finding is consistent with previous results demonstrating the presence of additional periodicities of about 12, 8, 6 hours, etc., in the Coimbra data [8] as well as other environmental radon records [64][65][66][67]. Taken together, the part of the spectrum between about 3 hours and 1 day should not be used for estimating a spectral slope associated with possible long-range memory, since it mainly reflects the presence of periodic components in the signal.…”

“…During the past few decades, long‐term radon monitoring has been conducted within geological media such as shallow soil, country rock, alluvial deposits, ground water, and hot springs and has revealed the following results: (1) A typical cyclical daily signature in radon temporal variability [ Lehmann et al , ; Martín‐Luis et al , ; Schubert and Schulz , ; Alparone et al , ; Fujiyoshi et al , ; Sundal et al , ; Choubey et al , ]: (2) longer radon signals, of several days [ Steinitz et al , ; Richon et al , ; Barbosa et al , ; Eff‐Darwich et al , ; Inan et al , ; Nikolopoulos et al , ]; and (3) long‐term seasonal patterns [ Perrier et al , ; Ghosh et al , ; Barbosa et al , ; Choubey et al , ; Richon et al , ; Zafrir et al , ; Martin‐Luis et al , ].…”

A novel technique utilizing simultaneous radon monitoring by gamma and alpha detectors to differentiate between the radon climatic driving forces and others has been improved and used for deep subsurface investigation. Detailed long‐term monitoring served as a proxy for studying radon movement within the shallow and deep subsurface, as well as for analyzing the effect of various parameters of the radon transport pattern. The main achievements of the investigation are (a) determination, for the first time, of the radon movement velocity within rock layers at depths of several tens of meters, namely, 25 m/h on average; (b) distinguishing between the diurnal periodical effect of the ambient temperature and the semidiurnal effect of the ambient pressure on the radon temporal spectrum; and (c) identification of a radon random preseismic anomaly preceding the Nuweiba, M 5.5 earthquake of 27 June 2015 that occurred within Dead Sea Fault Zone.
