For the purpose, the gamma dose rate was measured at 68 locations in 2010, and 72 location in 2015 and 2020 using a portable dosimeter positioned 1 m above the ground surface. The gamma dose rates in the country were in the range 53 - 340 nSv/h in 2010, 38 - 360 nSv/h in 2015 and 41 - 300 nSv/h in 2020. It was found that the reason for a variation in the measured values is due to the geological factors and geological formations which are different in different parts of the country. | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12188/33118 |
