Abstract

The paper deals with the peculiarities of temporary alterations of radon concentrations of the subsoil atmosphere within geodynamically active regions of Turkmenistan, seismic regions and adjacent territories. Anomalous high radon concentrations are registered within zones of active tectonic fractures where sources of most tectonic earthquakes are concentrated. Occurrence of anomalous radon content witnesses the alteration of geodynamic processes within the interior of the region and adjacent territories.
