As a standard manual for environmental radioactivity analysis and environmental radiation measurement, we have established the series of environmental radioactivity measuring methods. The methods are classified by measurement target (air radiation, radioactive materials in the air, etc.), measurement method (instrumental analysis, radiochemical analysis, etc.), and nuclide, and are systematically listed in a tree format.
