As concentrações de urânio equivalente, tório equivalente, potássio e taxa de exposição foram determinadas em diferentes dias e horários para um mesmo local, a partir de dados gamaespectrométricos aerotransportados, medidos a uma altura média de 81 metros. Os perfis individuais foram então comparados com os perfis médios de todas as medidas. Os efeitos do radônio atmosférico e dos seus produtos de decaimento foram corrigidos com um pacote de cristais detectores extras voltados para cima, e os valores de calibração desses foram determinados a partir dos dados dos testes de radiação gama atmosférica: medidas acima de 760 metros de altura. A influência da radioatividade dos solos e rochas nos detectores voltados para cima foi corrigida de acordo com a técnica desenvolvida por Grasty e Hovgaard (1996) e discutida para as duas situações que elas são propostas. / The concentration of equivalent uranium, equivalent thorium, potassium and exposure rate were calculated on different days and hours for the same location, from airborne gamma ray spectrometric data, measured at an average height of 81 meters. The individual profiles were compared with mean profiles of all the measurements. The effects of atmospheric radon and its decay products were corrected using a pack of additional detectors crystals facing up (upward looking detector), and the calibration values these were determined from test data of atmospheric gamma radiation: measurements above 760 meters in height. The influence of radioactivity in soil and rocks in the upward looking detector was corrected according to the technique developed by Grasty and Hovgaard (1996) and discussed the two situations for which they are proposed.

Thermal waters in Karlovy Vary are characterized by carbonate sedimentation in places of their emergence. These sediments contain radium. Radium bond in every type of sinter (aragonite, calcite) has been investigated experimentally by acid sinter dissolution. It has been found out, that radium can join dissoluble fraction in both sinter types . The original hypothesis that radium can bond only aragonite-type of sinter has been refuted. Additional experiments have been processed using synthetic radiobarite. Present radium in radiobarite can be partly dissoluted using acids. If radium was incorporated in radiobarite (it is known from locality Vřídlo in Karlovy Vary and elsewhere) then maybe it would be partly dissoluted in experiments.
