Abstract
A simple and valid in-situ measurement method of effective diffusion coefficient of radon and thoron in soil and other porous materials was designed. The analysis of numerical investigation of radon and thoron transport in upper layers of soil revealed that thoron flux density from the earth surface does not depend on soil gas advective velocity and varies only with diffusion coefficient changes. This result showed the advantages of thoron using versus radon using in the suggested method. The comparison of the new method with existing ones previously developed. The method could be helpful for solving of problems of radon mass-transport in porous media and gaseous exchange between soil and atmosphere.

MODEL RADIOACTIVE RADON DECAY
In a model of radioactive decay of radon in the sample (222Rn). The model assumes that the probability of the decay of radon and its half-life depends on the fractal properties of the geological environment. The dependen...
