The area radiation monitor will measure the ambient radiation, usually X-ray, Gamma or neutrons; these are radiations which can have significant radiation levels over a range in excess of tens of metres from their source, and thereby cover a wide area. Gamma radiation "interlock monitors" are used in applications to prevent inadvertent exposure ...
This is a list of area codes in the Commonwealth of Virginia. 276 — Southwest corner of the state including Bristol, Galax, Martinsville, and Wytheville (September 1, 2001 as split from 540). 434 — South central area including Charlottesville and Lynchburg (June 1, 2001 as split from 804).
Radiation Exposure Monitoring (REM) is a framework developed by Integrating the Healthcare Enterprise (IHE), for utilizing existing technical standards, such as DICOM, to provide information about the dose delivered to patients in radiology procedures, in an interoperable format.
The NSA is a focal point for atmospheric and ecological research activity in the Arctic. Scientists use data from the NSA to improve the representation of high-latitude cloud and radiation processes in earth system models. The Eastern North Atlantic atmospheric observatory [5] is the newest measurement site established by the ARM user facility.
Safecast is an international, volunteer-centered organization devoted to open citizen science for environmental monitoring.Safecast was established by Sean Bonner, Pieter Franken, and Joi Ito shortly after the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear disaster in Japan, following the TÅhoku earthquake on 11 March 2011 and manages a global open data network for ionizing radiation and air quality monitoring.

A reading is taken from each of the over 200 stations every hour [2] [3] and an alert triggered if radiation levels for specific isotopes rise significantly above normal background radiation levels at one or more stations. RREMS replaced the older Radioactive Incident Monitoring Network (RIMNET) system in September 2022. [4]
Radiation monitors in general have a number of process-control applications in nuclear power plants; [9] a major CPAM application in this area is the monitoring of the air intake for the plant control room. In the event of an accident, high levels of airborne radioactivity could be brought into the control room by its HVAC system; the CPAM ...
