Emission of Rn and CO2 From Soil at Fault Zones Caused by Seismic Waves

Abstract In the search for precursors to earthquakes, correlation has been found between geochemical characteristics of soil gases and seismic activity. In this paper we present evidence that seismic waves can trigger emission of soil radon (Rn) and carbon dioxide (CO2). An active experiment was per...
