Keywords: atmospheric pressure, atmospheric electric field, radon, levels of aquifers
Аnnotation: Measurements of variations in the atmospheric electric field, soil and atmospheric radon concentration and hydrogeological parameters made it possible to establish links between the listed processes. The rise in aquifer levels increases the outflow of soil radon, which causes a fall in the atmospheric electric field; the fall in levels leads to the opposite effects. The cause of the rise may be infiltration of precipitation, hydraulic fracturing, lowering of atmospheric pressure; the cause of the fall may be a pumping of artesian waters or an increase in atmospheric pressure.
