2017-328-FARad 7 Radon Detector
RAD7 is an electronic radon detector that uses alpha spectroscopy to measure radon and thoron concentrations. It is commonly deployed in groundwater discharge studies (tracing submarine groundwater flow into coastal zones) and oceanographic research (radon as a tracer for nutrient fluxes).
