Abstract: Radon and its daughters are important sources of natural exposure to human beings. The variation of radon concentration in the atmosphere is significantly affected by variation of meteorological condition. We carried out a two-year full-time measurement using a continuous measurement device for radon and its daughters. Based on the cluster theory, the influence of meteorological condition therein is analyzed. This could be a reference for the study of radon and its daughters in the atmosphere.

Key words: Atmospheric radon concentration, Meteorological condition, Diurnal variation
