Toprak radon gazı ölçümleri, Türkiye'nin aktif fay sistemlerinden biri olan Doğu Anadolu Fay Sistemleri (DAFS) 'nin Sivrice Fay Zonunda kurulan radon izleme istasyonunda toprağa gömülü bir algılama sistemi ile yapılmıştır. Bu bölgedeki depremlerin meydana gelme süreleri ve büyüklükleri, söz konusu istasyondan çevrimiçi olarak elde edilen radon gazı difüzyonu ile karşılaştırılmış ve sonuçlar literatürdeki veriler ışığında yorumlanmıştır.
Bu çalışmada, toprak radon gazı emisyonundaki değişiklikler ile depremler arasında bir ilişki olduğu görülmüştür. AFAD'dan deprem listelerine ve istasyonlardan alınan toprak radon gazı çıkışlarındaki değişim grafiklerindeki analizler, radon yayılımındaki artışı izleyen dönemdaki azalışta; depremlerin hemen hemen bütününün meydana geldiği görülmüştür.

Soil radon gas measurements were made via a sensing system embedded in soil at radon monitoring station, which was established in Sivrice Fault Zone of Eastern Anatolia Fault Systems (DAFS) being one of the active fault system of Turkey. The occurrence times and magnitude of earthquakes at this zone were compared with the radon gas diffusion obtained online from the mentioned station and the results were interpreted in the light of data in the literature.
In this study, it was seen that there is a relationship between the changes in soil radon gas emission and earthquakes. Additionally, according to the analyses on graphs which present the changes in soil radon gas outlet taken from stations and earthquake lists taken from AFAD (Republic of Turkey Prime Ministry Disaster and Emergency Management Presidency), it was seen that almost all of the earthquakes occur in a decreasing period following the increase in radon emission.
