Abstract: Guangdong Environmental Radiation Monitoring Center (GREC) has been engaged in environmental radiation monitoring since it was established in 1989. Combined with problems encountered in our daily work, such issues as significant digits of measurement results, background subtraction in γ-spectrometry measurement, reporting of data below detection limit, and the evaluation criteria of the results of duplication measurement, re-measurement and inter laboratory comparison are discussed.

Key words: Radiation Monitoring, Significant digit, Background subtraction, Detection limit
